Dancing On My Own (11/10), Diamond Hill (5/2), Days Without End (7/2), Sky Marshal (8/1), Caer (16/1), Baily Thunder (50/1), Divin Desir (66/1), Killdevil George (66/1), Antigua Son (100/1), Cosmic Rock (100/1), Huckleberry Hill (100/1), Battle Away (100/1), Dubheen (100/1), Lariat Go (100/1)

The Henry De Bromhead-trained DANCING ON MY OWN can land the opener under jockey Rachael Blackmore. The Milan gelding can be forgiven his last run in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham festival and can get off the mark for connections at the sixth time of asking at the expense of Diamond Hill, representing last years winning yard and Days Without End for Dermot Weld who has one win and three places in this race in the last eight years. Sky Marshal, second at Cork earlier this month and the Noel Meade-trained Caer both deserve further consideration.
