No Pressure Pat (11/4), Dromore Lad (7/2), Lockeen Girl (6/1), Ancient Empire (13/2), Dry Run (13/2), Flemish Maid (9/1), Itsallhappening (10/1), Mclaren Vale (20/1), Glen's Dd (25/1), Westinmare (25/1), Diggin Deep (33/1), Cootamundra (33/1), Vodka Society (33/1), Ballykea Star (33/1), Megans Bella (50/1), Mystic Embarr (50/1)

A line can be put through quite a few of these and there seems to be two outstanding candidates in Dromore Lad and NO PRESSURE PAT. The latter showed much improved form to win on his handicap debut and may be able to follow up off 8lb higher. Itsallhappening and Dry Run look best of the rest.
