Kilbakanto (2/1), Tony Joe (11/4), Jonquilla (7/2), Lawsky (7/2), High Point (9/1), Kings Order (80/1)

Six-figure Irish point winner KILBAKANTO is being brought along gradually but should be up to winning a race of this nature. He gets the vote, with confidence even higher should the market speak in his favour. Jonquilla was seen to maximum effect from the front when runner-up on hurdle debut but could give another good account granted similar circumstances, while well-related Tony Joe heads a trio of interesting hurdle debutants.
