Slieve Bearnagh (11/4), Young Lucy (11/4), Plunkett Street (4/1), Billie Frechette (5/1), Fascinating Shadow (13/2), Spanish John (8/1), Noble Andy (10/1), Jawhary (10/1), Beer With The Boys (10/1), Stepdance (10/1), Randall Poets Lass (16/1), Tassarolo (16/1), Serotonin (20/1), Lord Talbot (25/1), Our Lucky Lady (25/1), Picpoul (25/1), Pauline's Dream (28/1), Wonderwalk (33/1), Synchronize (40/1), Noble Hilltop (50/1), My Minervina (66/1)

The vote goes to SLIEVE BEARNAGH, who was narrowly outpointed by a stronger stayer under testing conditions at Limerick last month and, back on better ground here, the 8-y-o will prove a tough nut to crack. Billie Frechette is a much-respected main danger, while cases can also be made for Fascinating Shadow and Cork winner Plunkett Street.
