Rockview Consort (11/8), Selador (10/3), Marvelosa (5/1), Livia Celeste (13/2), Zawahir (9/1), Thatsthat (16/1), Inchiquin Maid (18/1), Honketonk Angel (20/1), Miss Upbeat (33/1), Wrecking Ball Paul (50/1), Say You're Sorry (50/1), Shoe String (50/1), Power To Love (50/1), Fairy's Call (66/1), Bettybootwo (66/1), Gains Of War (100/1), Lazy O (125/1)

ROCKVIEW CONSORT is proving consistent rather than progressive but having hit the crossbar on her last couple of starts over C&D, John McConnell's filly is fancied to go one better today. The Joseph O'Brien-trained pair Selador and Livia Celeste both should go well and they head up the dangers, with Zawahir another to consider on just her second start on the all-weather.
