Fabulous Saga (8/11), Robin Des Foret (7/2), West Coast Time (7/1), Burren Life (12/1), Wonderoftheworld (12/1), The Birdie Crowe (25/1), Champoleon (33/1)

This could turn out to be an intriguing race given the fact that Robin Des Foret likes to hold a strong lead in his races. It will be down to Ruby Walsh not to let his stablemate get too far in front coming to pounce at the business end of the race on FABULOUS SAGA. The Gordon Elliott-trained Burren Life and Wonderoftheworld will be worth a market check.
