Cool And Clever (10/11), Tumultuous (2/1), Sunset Shiraz (9/1), Pilbara Gold (16/1), Caffarelli (18/1), New Star (22/1), Kalimera (33/1), Molly's Gamble (50/1), Say It So (66/1)

COOL AND CLEVER shaped well on debut at Cork just over 5 weeks ago, and he looks sure to improve with the step up in trip a good move. Tumultuous ran to a similar level to the selection on debut and should play a big part also. Sunset Shiraz is the interesting newcomer.
