Moonovercloon (9/4), War Correspondent (3/1), Weddell Sea (7/1), Ahead Of The Posse (7/1), Pure Sirloin (8/1), The King Of Prs (10/1), I Don't Get It (12/1), Highland Charge (14/1), Ebasari (14/1), Typical Thomas (16/1), Dollar Value (20/1), Bonarc (22/1), Defan (25/1)

MOONOVERCLOON did the job well enough at Downpatrick last time to suggest that he will be capable of going in again off this 7 lb higher mark. Fit from the Flat, War Correspondent looks a big threat on his handicap debut in this sphere, while Weddell Sea is third choice ahead of I Don't Get It.
