Keke (9/2), Apache Outlaw (5/1), Moltophino (11/2), Daamberdiplomat (7/1), Heavenly Power (9/1), Tango Flare (12/1), Collective Power (12/1), I Am Superman (12/1), Little Queenie (16/1), Gerrit's Gem (16/1), Ohailbhic (16/1), Barbapapa (20/1), Mehman (20/1), Erosandpsyche (20/1), Dandyville (33/1), Mickey The Steel (66/1)

Lots with chances but it could pay to side with COLLECTIVE POWER who didn't enjoy the rub of the green when a promising sixth at Naas last time and can gain compensation here. C&D winner Keke is feared most off a handy-looking mark ahead of Ohailbhic and Mickey The Steel. Apache Outlaw completes the shortlist.
