Kool One (8/11), Harpy Eagle (2/1), Dschingis Dragon (9/4), Stay In The Game (13/2), Kilt (16/1), Northern Trix (33/1), Red Sea Girl (40/1), Miss Donna (50/1), Biddy Early (50/1), Clever Court (50/1), Gypsy Poet (66/1), King Bob (66/1), Maxios Lady (125/1), Invincible Oscar (125/1)

KOOL ONE arrives on the back of a career-best victory on the Flat at Roscommon 10 days ago and, having displayed more than enough to think a race of this nature is within his grasp earlier this year, he looks to hold solid claims. Dschingis Dragon can step forward from her Cork third 7 weeks ago and is feared most. Hurdles newcomer Kilt and Harpy Eagle are others to keep an eye on.
