Blackcastle Storm (4/1), Eastern Wind (9/2), Rampage (11/2), Imposing Supreme (6/1), Breezy Zoff (13/2), Sondheim (11/1), Roderick (12/1), Zahee (12/1), Roman Palace (12/1), Hijo De La Luna (14/1), Vikki Wall (16/1), Bungle Inthedesert (20/1), Eight By Ten (28/1), Simpson's Paradox (33/1), Bang Po (33/1), Hasiyna (100/1)

EASTERN WIND turned in her best effort of the season when third at Leopardstown and she remains on a potentially handy mark. Breezy Zoff and Blackcastle Storm head the dangers.
