Scherzando (3/1), Pulsating (4/1), Everyhouronthehour (9/2), Keep Believing (9/2), Is Fantastic (15/2), Jungle Jungle (15/2), Camilla Sina (11/1), Eye Of The Dragon (14/1), She's In The Game (14/1), Time And Money (14/1), Ahaziah (16/1), Plugged In (18/1), Little Camacho (33/1), Callmejango (40/1), Tooclosetocall (40/1), Pinpointed (50/1), Royal Bungle (80/1)

KEEP BELIEVING proved a disappointment over C&D in July but he was reportedly coughing post-race, so is worth another chance to show he's well handicapped. Scherzando will benefit from a return to this trip and heads the dangers, along with Jungle Jungle, who was possibly unsuited by the softer conditions at Punchestown last time.
