Dancing Duke (9/4), Cantkidakidder (7/1), Graney Town (7/1), Chelate (7/1), Robyns Approach (8/1), Cher Why Not (8/1), Black Kettle (10/1), Sierra Law (12/1), She's A Survivor (12/1), Auntie Chloe (14/1), Posh Frock (14/1), Maureen's Star (16/1), Niamh's Wish (16/1), The Crane Man (25/1), Patricks Boy (25/1), I C Gold (33/1), Bach Along (40/1), Mallory Heights (66/1)

Plenty of these have question marks hanging over them, but Cantkidakider and Graney Town have shaped well recently and should be able to be competitive at this level. The selection, though, is DANCING DUKE, who has revealed glimpses of ability over hurdles and showed he was in good heart on his latest start on the Flat. Of the rest, Posh Frock could be dangerous from her falling handicap mark.
