Winding River (6/4), Paladian Jewel (5/2), Prince Zaltar (7/1), General Clermont (15/2), Bentham (8/1), Loudest Whisper (12/1), Toms Courage (14/1), Simpatico (14/1), Scalor (25/1), Coconut Tudor (28/1), Willywampus (66/1), Pure Sirloin (66/1), Massons Castle (66/1), Shamrock'n Roll (80/1), Duhallow Rainbow (125/1)

WINDING RIVER holds the clear edge on form and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to open his account over fences on the back of his good Downpatrick second. Both Prince Zaltar and Simpatico arrive in good nick from hurdling and appeal as the duo to chase home Oliver McKieranan's 5-y-o on their respective chasing debuts.
