Jezki (6/5), Diakali (9/4), Hidden Cyclone (9/2), Blackmail (10/1), Stars Over The Sea (12/1), Morgan (25/1)

JEZKI disappointed at Cheltenham over 3m but he should get conditions to suit here having struggled last time over 2m in heavy going at Gowran Park in February. He isn't one to cast aside yet and can take the opener for the in-form Harrington team. Hidden Cyclone is thriving in the twilight of his career for this switch back to hurdling while Diakali is interesting on second start back from his latest layoff having perhaps needed the run last time. Stars Over The Sea will be one to monitor as he slots back into jumping for his new handler.
