Dads Lad (10/3), My Mate Mozzie (5/1), Glan (11/2), Flaming Moon (7/1), Fils D'oudairies (10/1), Outback Flyer (10/1), Farout (10/1), Little Big Rocky (14/1), Exit Poll (14/1), Magnor Glory (16/1), Charli Parcs (18/1), Effernock Fizz (20/1), Felix Desjy (20/1), Wouldn't You Agree (20/1), Clifton Warrior (20/1), Vina Ardanza (25/1), Darkened (25/1), Vultan (28/1), Tudor City (33/1)

GLAN fared best of those held up when fourth in the Galway Hurdle and tops the shortlist off a similar mark. His stablemate Fils d'Oudairies is another to consider, while Willie Mullins holds a strong hand with Dads Lad and Farout.
