Space Tourist (6/4), Riviere D'etel (3/1), Popova (4/1), Iriskana (15/2), Lady Of The Vale (9/1), Kilbree Warrior (14/1), Emily In Paris (33/1), Close Enough (100/1)

Although POPOVA meets Space Tourist on worse terms than when narrowly denying her at Listowel the step up in trip promises to see Henry de Bromhead's mare in an even better light and she can confirm placings with her old rival. Riviere D'etel was struggling over fences when last seen in the spring but could also have a say if a return to hurdles sparks her back to life.
