Monzoon (7/2), Shona Mea (9/2), Eloquent Arthur (9/2), Sadiqaa (11/2), Super Cub (6/1), Inchiquin Star (6/1), Well Suited (15/2), Stormie Outlook (8/1), Leabaland (11/1), Butterfly Island (14/1), Cleveleys (16/1), The Blue Panther (18/1), Bonnyrigg (18/1), You Owe Me Money (20/1), Wee Pablo (22/1), Wootton Babble (22/1), Danceinthevillage (66/1)

SADIQAA was better than he could show at the Curragh last time and prior to that had made a solid start for the Denis Hogan yard when fourth over 7f here so he might be the answer to this tricky handicap. Butterfly Island, Inchiquin Star and the selection's stablemate Super Cub head the many posible dangers.
