Berlios (9/4), Star Cracker (11/4), Building Year (9/2), Sienna Dream (5/1), Mr Shelby (7/1), Vallarta (7/1), Uncle Charlie (8/1), Guiding Star (12/1), Fintry Flyer (12/1), Lady Molly (22/1), Corton Lass (25/1), Cheeni (33/1), Goninodaethat (33/1), Dawoodi (66/1)

Most of these are struggling to find the winning habit. Jim Goldie won this last year and saddles four this time with both FINTRY FLYER and Star Cracker holding decent claims. Narrow preference is for the former. Guiding Star shaped as though running into form last time and fellow Irish raider Building Year is certainly worth monitoring in the betting having hinted at better to come last time. The likes of Vallarta, Berlios, Uncle Charlie and Siena Dream are also in with a shout.
