Mighty Bandit (13/8), Kala Conti (7/2), Kargese (4/1), Nurburgring (11/2), Karafon (18/1), Cossack Chach (18/1), Miss Manzor (18/1), Batman Girac (33/1), Karia Des Blaises (40/1), Eagle Fang (66/1), Ose Partir (80/1), Kaleosun (80/1)

It's interesting that Jack Kennedy seemingly prefers MIGHTY BANDIT to his more-established stablemate Kala Conti. That filly can turn around recent Fairyhouse form with Nurburgring on 7 lb better terms and provide the chief threat. It'll also be fascinating to see what the betting makes of the 5 Willie Mullins runners, 4 of whom are starting out for the stable after coming over from France, Kargese possibly best of them.
