Rodney Bay (15/8), General Maximus (9/4), Duleek Street (7/2), Will You Win (13/2), Beasley Street (15/2), Size Five (50/1), Mrss Bates (80/1), Bingo Queen (100/1), Celebrating Katie (100/1), Chancer Dancer (100/1), Captain Frankie (125/1), Carraig Gorm (125/1), Iguis (150/1), Glenview (200/1)

GENERAL MAXIMUS made a promising start to his hurdling career at Navan in March and should be sufficiently tuned up to go one better on his return. Duleek Street should improve for the experience of his initial hurdling experience and Beasley Street can't be dismissed on his first go in this sphere despite showing only modest form over hurdles.
