Fire In His Eyes (6/4), Kopookris (7/4), Crosshue Boy (5/2), Mr Boss Man (28/1), Barna Gallery (66/1)

After a string of seconds FIRE IN HIS EYES should have enough about him to finally win a race here. Perhaps unlucky to remain a maiden over fences at this stage he has shown plenty of ability in chases so far and represents top connections. Hat-trick seeker Crosshue Boy could be second best under a penalty, ahead of Koopookris, who beat the selection at Thurles two starts back.
