Arthurian Fame (7/2), Whirling Dervish (7/2), Near Kettering (4/1), Dawn Hoofer (6/1), Night Of Power (6/1), Fiesole (8/1), Drapers Guild (8/1), Law Girl (9/1), Abjar (12/1), Powersbomb (28/1), Mary Sun (33/1), Magic Sea (50/1)

There was enough to like about the effort of WHIRLING DERVISH in Listed company at Navan in May to warrant the suggest he can get off to a winning start in handicaps. The Harrington team are in super form and his current mark of 93 shouldn't be the ceiling for him. This trip looks more likely to suit Near Kettering after being one-paced at Sligo last time while Night Of Power and Arthurian Fame are others worth considering.
