Harry's Bar (8/11), San Andreas (6/5), Roderick (20/1), Nice To Call First (100/1), Surviving Murmansk (125/1)

Five runners but this looks to rest between HARRY'S BAR and San Andreas with preference for Adrian McGuinness' 3-time C&D scorer. Joseph O'Brien's 4-time course winner is hard to fault though and should ensure this is a good tussle between the duo.
