Sizing Pottsie (9/10), Entoucas (9/2), Epswell (7/1), Satoshi (9/1), Buttons And Bows (12/1), Falco De Candale Aa (16/1), Inca Gold (25/1), Challow (25/1), Kuraka (25/1), Percy B Shelley (28/1), De Mazzaro (50/1), Edelweis De L'aube (100/1)

The betting should prove useful here but a chance is given to French import ENTOUCAS, one of two for trainer Joseph O'Brien. The yard are in form and he was a cosy winner of his point-to-point in one run last year. There should be a good deal more to come. Stablemate Inca Gold is also interesting while Sizing Pottsie has smart bumper for and should be able to make his mark over jumps before long. Epswell underperformed at Galway but could bounce straight back at a track where the champion trainer farms winners. Buttons And Bows, Satoshi and Challow complete the shortlist in a wide open event.
