Ballyward (9/10), The Holy One (3/1), As You Were (5/1), Double Portrait (12/1), Dr Wallace (14/1), Plan Of Attack (14/1), Jammy George (20/1), Heroesandvillains (25/1), Victoria Bay (50/1), Roxboro Road (50/1), Lady Mangan (66/1), Misty Hollow (66/1), The Caddy (100/1), Beliou Le Fume (100/1), Glendaars Warrior (100/1), Tubacurry Tornado (100/1)
It was slightly disappointing that BALLYWARD could only manage fourth on hurdling debut last time out but that was off the back of a long lay-off, and now with the benefit for a run for fitness he should be able to put in a more impressive performance here. Having won a bumper by 16L last season he is in the right hands to get off the mark over obstacles here. Meanwhile As You Were found only the odds-on favourite too good at Navan last time and should also be thereabouts, while Roxboro Road is an interesting newcomer.
