Rexem (6/5), Grozni (7/2), Grand Roi (4/1), Gentleman Joe (7/1), Weddell Sea (12/1), Plains Indian (14/1), Douglas Dc (16/1), Typical Thomas (33/1)
GENTLEMAN JOE shaped well on his first go over fences when runner-up at Roscommon and this fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner can build on it to get off the mark in this sphere. Rexem also made an encouraging chasing start when second at Wexford so could emerge as the chief threat ahead of form=choice Grand Roi who would be a threat to all if completing on this occasion.
