Mary Frances (13/8), Mick The Jiver (3/1), Shower Cross (7/2), Shannak (7/2), Guided By You (4/1), Laid Back Luke (8/1), Captainofthefleet (10/1), Cosmo's Moon (10/1), Twiss's Hill (12/1), Thekingofconnemara (33/1)
Laid Back Luke, Mary Frances and Shower Cross have been in good form lately and that is reflected in their current marks. In contrast SHANNAK looks well-treated on his autumn fourth at Naas. He was in the process of running a big race before taking a tumble last time and this looks easier than his recent tests. Guided By You would be feared if his jumping has improved and Davy Russell looks an interesting booking for Twiss's Hill.
