Mighty Oak Lad (9/4), Jay Pee M (7/2), Glady Max (9/2), John The Diva (9/2), The Miracle Man (12/1), On Your Way (14/1), Natural Breeze (16/1), Cloudy Fountain (18/1), Callmedusty (28/1), Whotookthebiscuit (33/1), Notimelikedpresent (40/1), Danny The Fence (66/1), Chasing Chances (80/1), Fire Force (100/1), Da Big Fella (125/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and MIGHTY OAK LAD looks the way to go on the back of his excellent Navan handicap third last time out. John The Diva shaped well on his first go over fences when third at Tramore and rates the main threat to Karl Thornton's 7-y-o, while chasing newcomers On Your Way and Jay Pee M also need factoring in, especially if the market speaks in their favour.
