Lady Rose Hackett (3/1), Onebrightbluerose (7/2), Mist On The Bog (5/1), Baltinglass Hill (5/1), Hob's Angel (5/1), Itsalonglongroad (6/1), Ixigreczed (8/1), Special Protector (12/1), Applejack Poet (14/1), Katzoff (25/1)

LADY ROSE HACKETT got back on track following 6 months off when fourth over hurdles at Kilbeggan 23 days ago and, easily one of the least exposed, Henry de Bromhead's former point scorer could well be up to the task now her attentions switch to larger obstacles. Mist On The Bog was an eyecatcher on his return recently and he's another worthy of consideration. Onebrightbluerose and Itsalonglongroad complete the shortlist.
