Plenty in with a shout. SHAWSHANK caught the eye after a long absence when fourth at Wexford last month and figures on a good mark too so he gets the nod with that run under his belt. In-form Ellipsism seems sure to have a say back chasing and Ciankyle also commands plenty of respect having not been seen to best effect last time.
