Big Interest (5/2), Annamix (4/1), Early Doors (5/1), Hollow Games (8/1), Lonesome Boatman (17/2), My Best Valentine (12/1), Boss Robin (12/1), Dorking Cock (14/1), Ramillies (16/1), Tornado Flyer (18/1), Bigbraveboy (40/1), Balkito (50/1), Step Up Son (100/1)

Granted decent ground BIG INTEREST could take some stopping here. He was a clear-cut winner on Rules debut in a Down Royal bumper on Boxing Day and the slow surface appeared to count against him at Naas next time. Recent point winner Lonesome Boatman will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward, while Hollow Games is third choice. Early Doors and multiple point winner My Best Valentine are also shortlisted.
