Adreamstillalive (5/2), Landau (4/1), Marakoush (5/1), Charlie Stout (7/1), Draycott Place (10/1), Plain Talking (10/1), Jeannot De Nonant (14/1), Sir Abbot (14/1), Rosie Alice (16/1), Theophilus (20/1)

ADREAMSTILLALIVE must post another career-best to win this but the form of her last time out win at Naas suggests the mare could well have it in her. She's chasing a four-timer and is likely to take the beating again. Landau was third to the De Bromhead mare last time and should be on the premises again, while Plain Talking should strip fitter after a recent Thurles blow out over a much longer trip. Marakoush ought to find this less taxing while Charlie Stout can have a say if proving last month's Haydock no-show was just a blip. Draycott Place switches from fences and can get competitive if making a smooth transition.
