Lots with chances but it could pay to side with SHADOW RIDER who wasn't seen to ideal effect when sixth in a big field at Fairyhouse last time and can now capitalise on a reduced mark. Slane Hill heads the list of dangers on the back of his third at the same track when ridden too aggressively, although the likes of Final Orders, Plains Indian and Yeats Star all need factoring in too.
