Lady Scathach (5/2), Royal Canford (7/2), Billyfairplay (13/2), Lightning Amber (8/1), Aced It (17/2), Dedillon (9/1), Emphatic (16/1), Will Be King (20/1), Pulsating (22/1), High Altitude (28/1), Rattling Jewel (28/1), Visionara (40/1), Grey Hill (100/1)
The manner in which Lady Scathach defied the handicapper at Leopardstown four days ago ensures she isn't to be underestimated despite a 6lb penalty now but this is a classier event and perhaps she's been cornered for the moment. High Altitude has gone well here before and is in the mix along with the likes of Lightning Amber and Aced It. Emphatic twice hit the crossbar here lasts summer but lacks a recent run so preference is for WILL BE KING who won on penultimate start at Roscommon and travelled well since at the Curragh in better company before find less than looked likely. He drops in trip and has form at this distance.
- Will Be King
- Lightning Amber
