Hakensack (2/1), Duce Bigalow (4/1), Diamond Dollar (5/1), Lovely Reaction (8/1), Ernie From Nurney (9/1), Halsafari (10/1), Feast (10/1), Baltinglass Hill (14/1), Mastermind (33/1), Just For Yuse (50/1), Tullabrack Lad (100/1)
LOVELY REACTION was shaping up well on her chasing bow at Fairyhouse when coming down three out and this fair winning hurdler can gain compenastion here off a handy-looking mark. Duce Bigalow is feared most on the back of a very good Naas second, although fencing newcomers Diamond Dollar and Hakensack are not without interest either. Baltinglass Hill completes the shortlist.
