Kharma (10/3), Misterio (13/2), Corballis Flyer (13/2), Miss Jabeam (8/1), Fit For Function (17/2), Markievicz (11/1), Dee Sprinter (16/1), Kals Mogok (20/1), Eleuthera (20/1), Intervention (22/1), Doonard Prince (22/1), Majestic Matriarch (22/1), Hija De La Luna (25/1), Hell Left Loose (25/1), Sweet Justice (25/1), Viv Vance (28/1), Maggie Thunder (40/1), Pillar (50/1), Nice Child Two (80/1)

KHARMA went close to making a winning handicap debut at Fairyhouse 12 days ago, showing much-improved form in the process, and can make another bold bid up only 2 lb. Fit For Function and Viv Vance head the dangers.
