Astronomer (6/4), Low Sun (2/1), Uradel (6/1), Warnaq (10/1), Song Of Namibia (12/1), The Mouse Doctor (14/1), Fearaun (20/1), Mezajy (50/1)
Low Sun has been in super form both over hurdles and on the Flat, and isn't overlooked easily, but this represents a sharp drop in trip and despite winning form in France over shorter in his youth, it is a sizeable change in tact now. Fearaun is a potential improver going handicapping while the same is true of Astronomer, despite the relative concerns over the Ballydoyle string just now. Uradel, the second Mullins runner, is also facing a stiff drop in distance and so THE MOUSE DOCTOR, winner at Leopardstown last time out, holds the vote to follow up having gone up 5lb.
