Aingeal Dorcha (7/2), New Hill (5/1), International Lady (5/1), Devious Dreamer (6/1), You Owe Me Money (13/2), Tall Story (11/1), Whipsaw (11/1), Zumoradda (12/1), Lust For Life (14/1), Benkogambit (14/1), Ablah (16/1), Ivy Rock (22/1), Shake The Heart (28/1), Chavajod (50/1), Tribute To Jade (100/1), Supreme Machine (100/1)

A wide-open handicap which can go the way of DEVIOUS DREAMER, who is proving consistent of late and, having run up to his best when finishing runner-up at Dundalk earlier this month, can go one place better here. New Hill left previous efforts behind on handicap debut last time so heads up the dangers, ahead of Aingeal Dorcha and hat-trick-seeking International Lady.
