Band Width (7/2), Dairerin (9/2), Seeingisbelieving (13/2), Bells On Her Toes (7/1), Pessoa (8/1), Queen's Pardon (17/2), Girl Crush (9/1), Lady Arwen (10/1), Eriskay (12/1), Hector Berlioz (14/1), Rockbury Lad (16/1), Cherry Bloom (16/1), Super Cub (18/1), Purple Gown (25/1), Arch Enemy (33/1), Raleigh Bridge (33/1), Together Aclaim (40/1), Morning Soldier (66/1)

BAND WIDTH looked an unlucky loser at Limerick 3 weeks ago and could be the way to go off the same mark. Dairerin was the beneficiary at Limerick but backed that up with a good run at Naas so must be respected. The unexposed Girl Crush and Raleigh Bridge are also considered.
