Killultagh Vic (9/10), Ex Patriot (7/2), Diamond King (6/1), Ivanovich Gorbatov (9/1), Tigris River (10/1), Massini's Trap (25/1), Lean Araig (25/1), Jennys Melody (50/1), Whatever Jacksays (50/1)
Killultagh Vic obviously has the class to see of these on his best form but like a few others here he returns after a long absence and preference if for EX PATRIOT. A classy juvenile hurdler last season he has made the step up to senior hurdling smoothly and seemed to improve for the step up in trip when winning well at Limerick last time. He could do with jumping better here but if he can manage that he can account for the rest, including Diamond King, who should enjoy this return to 2m4f hurdling.
