Darkdeserthighway (9/4), Skontonovski (9/2), Han Solo (9/2), Scarriff (5/1), Ballysax (5/1), Indiana Grey (6/1), Cheeky Peek (9/1), Swiss Army Officer (9/1), Chazzesmee (10/1), Secret Rock (12/1), Dragon Roll (14/1), Ju Ju Gabor (18/1), Dreams Delivered (25/1), Rufus Saxton (25/1), Asisaid (28/1), Gemini Man (40/1), Crimson Flag (40/1), Princess Plumeria (50/1), Retro Flame (50/1), Tynan (100/1), Sweet November (150/1)

HAN SOLO won a division of this race in 2020 and could strike after shaping better at Clonmel last time under his young rider. Scarriff, Darkdeserthighway and Skontonovski demand close scrutiny also.
