Ardea (5/4), Galway Jack (5/2), Brody Bleu (6/1), One Conemara (7/1), Open Hearted (8/1), Nowurhurlin (10/1), Duke Of Lucca (16/1), Forge Valley (50/1)

This revolves around one or two formerly class acts and whether they can reproduce something like their true ability and we will side with DUKE OF LUCCA to win it. Open Hearted is another for the short-list, while Galway Jack, Ardea and Brody Blue are others who cannot be confidently crossed out. 1. Duke Of Lucca 2. Open Hearted 3. Galway Jack
