Hermann Clermont (2/1), Emir De Rots (10/3), Bentham (10/3), Politicise (4/1), Gaius (5/1), Very Excellent (6/1), Jetango (9/1), Scheu Time (9/1), Light Heidi (11/1), Light Fury (16/1), Sight Nor Seen (33/1), Ballycastle Brat (50/1), Big Tree (66/1), Sani Pass (80/1)

GAIUS ran just about his best race for this yard when third in a big-field handicap at Listowel last week and holds sound claims on these terms. Politicise and Hermann Clermont are a couple of potential threats.
