Hidden Spark (7/2), Han Solo (9/2), Woods (11/2), Trish's Company (6/1), Blankiedoodie (8/1), Summer's Dream (8/1), Loaded (12/1), Jungle Jungle (16/1), Anfaass (16/1), Olly's Folly (16/1), A Few Bob Short (16/1), No Way Jack (16/1), Feather Step (20/1), Brawny (25/1), Afric (50/1), Forza Libranno (50/1), Wisaka (66/1), Macaban City (100/1)
Those at the top of the handicap, Loaded, second of 14 on latest start at the Galway festival last month, Trish's Company, in first-time blinkers and the Gordon Elliott-trained, Brawny can all go well from their rating but may be pipped at the post by the solid and consistent HAN SOLO. The four-year-old, has been running well since a return to action at Limerick over 1m finishing a close up second of 16 runners before another bold effort at Ballinrobe last month. Recent second of 12 at Killarney last month, Summer's Dream should not be taken lightly.
