Steel Wave (4/1), Bosco Di Alco (4/1), Pleasure Dome (9/2), The Brassmoulder (5/1), Adimelo (8/1), Voices Of Spring (8/1), Matin D'anjou (11/1), Rock On Barney (16/1), Ned's Island (20/1), The Rite Article (20/1), Beginningtogetup (20/1), Mick The Boyo (25/1), So Influential (33/1), Okey Dokey (40/1), Just A Normal Day (50/1), Golden Sunset (50/1), Katbart (66/1)

THE BRASSMOULDER is lightly raced for one his age but he can record a second victory at this venue and in the process make a winning chase debut. The selection represents a leading yard and he can take this with Adimelo, runner-up over fences at Thurles in the autumn capable of getting the better of Pleasure Dome who can take third on her first chase start if getting a run as first reserve for trainer Willie Mullins.
