The Granson (1/1), Western Command (4/1), Peace Party (6/1), Crumpledandcreased (7/1), Holding Pattern (8/1), Artic Quest (16/1), Highandmighty (20/1), Still Busy (33/1), Popcorn Sutton (66/1), Captain Commander (66/1)

The debut effort of PEACE PARTY at Navan is the best form on offer and there is every chance he can improve for it too so is the one they all have to beat. In four starts to date Crumpledandcreased has shown a fair level of form and can't de dismissed here representing Willie Mullins. As poorly as Western Command ran in his lone race he is of some interest for top connections and any market support for him would be highly significant.
