Henn See (11/8), Ask Anything (11/8), Ideal Du Tabert (7/1), Mighty Mo Missouri (12/1), Takarengo (14/1), Dontlettheoldmanin (16/1), Men Of Dreams (20/1), Jet Setting Johnny (33/1), Mount Frisco (50/1), Kendancer (66/1)

HENN SEE was unlucky to bump into such a progressive rival at Wexford on his return 3 weeks ago and this looks a good opportunity for him to go one better. Ask Anything showed big improvement when second on his handicap bow over hurdles last month so is an interesting contender switched to fences, while Ideal du Tabert shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on his chase bow at Cork recently.
