Some Reign (4/11), Sonic (3/1), Ballycrystal Court (14/1), Moores Novelty (14/1), French Ticket (16/1), The Road Home (20/1), Vino's Choice (28/1), Drums Of War (33/1), The Delray Munky (50/1), Painters Lad (200/1)

There are a few i this who will be aiming for handicaps once they have a mark and SOME REIGN looks capable of defying a penalty. Sonic looks a likely type for hurdles and his bumper form stacks up well for him to have a good chance on his hurdles debut. Ballycrystal Court and the Lucinda Russell pair The Road Home and Vino’s Choice look a likely trio to contest the minor placings.
