Cape Gentleman (4/7), The Shunter (9/2), Ruling (5/1), Jerandme (7/1), Chiricahua (10/1), Dark Spark (16/1), Dixon Line (125/1), Sani Pass (125/1), Patrick Joseph (150/1), Balaclava (250/1)

A range of abilities on show with several better known for their jumping exploits. CAPE GENTLEMAN shaped quite well in the Galway Plate last month and definitely possesses to speed to get the job done on the level. Ruling has stamina to prove but is unexposed and is second choice.
