Simply Sideways (4/1), Eloquent Arthur (5/1), Sea Gardens (5/1), Duke Of Leggagh (5/1), Brave Troop (5/1), Lady Arwen (6/1), La Tulipe Noire (15/2), Independent Expert (8/1), Bridge Of Dawn (10/1), Yokkell (10/1), Comfort Line (10/1), Dazzling Spirit (16/1), Anycity (25/1), Alhaajeb (25/1), Ayrton (50/1)

Plenty are in with a shout but SIMPLY SIDEWAYS comes here on the back of a career-best success at Clonmel so edges the vote. Dazzling Spirit is also a recent winner at the same track and weighted to go well too, with Lady Arwen, Bridge of Dawn and Eloquent Arthur all needing to be factored in too.
