Yermanthere (10/3), Dragon Of Malta (10/3), Loingseoir (7/1), Emorcee (15/2), Pinar Del Rio (15/2), Eloquent Arthur (8/1), Rerkha (11/1), First Gentleman (11/1), Coins Cross (12/1), Brains (28/1), Even Flow (33/1), Inablink (80/1)

ELOQUENT ARTHUR's latest Galway third represents solid form so he gets the nod off the same mark. Colin Keane has got a good tune out of Dragon of Malta recently and even a 9 lb rise for his Galway win is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Longseoir and Emorcee are others to consider.
