Grandero Bello (11/8), Macs Charm (3/1), My Immortal (10/3), Slip Of The Tongue (5/1), Where It All Began (7/1), Hurricane Cliff (9/1), Gain De Cause (22/1), Brookie (22/1), Aldo The Apache (25/1), Junior Alliance (33/1), All For Rachel (40/1), Low Mileage (100/1), Battle Of Mirbat (125/1), Cru Bourgeois (150/1), Islo (150/1), Limekiln Rock (150/1), Moonface (200/1)

MY IMMORTAL left his reappearance run well behind when going close in a Punchestown handicap hurdle in November, and this former point winner is taken to make a winning chase debut. The main danger is Grandero Bello, who made a Mullins-trained odds-on shot pull out all the stops at Fairyhouse and he's unlikely to remain a maiden for long in this sphere. Slip of The Tongue is third choice, while Brookie, Gain De Cause and Macs Charm are all open to improvement over fences.
