Benie Des Dieux (10/11), Stormy Ireland (7/1), Limini (9/1), Roksana (10/1), Lady Buttons (12/1), Elimay (16/1), Cap Soleil (20/1), Momella (20/1), Mia's Storm (20/1), Good Thyne Tara (25/1), Jester Jet (25/1), Slowmotion (50/1), Alletrix (50/1), Lackaneen Leader (50/1), Champayne Lady (100/1)

He's won nine of the last 10 renewals and Willie Mullins launches a five-pronged attack now, spearheaded by last year's heroine BENIE DES DIEUX. She hasn't run this season but all reports are positive and she can channel the spirit of the great Quevega to win again. Stablemates Limini, a Festival winner, and Stormy Ireland are worthy rivals but the value might be Elimay. She ran a cracker behind Good Thyne Tara at Christmas on her first start after arriving from France and is open to plenty improvement for Ireland's Champion Trainer. Cap Soleil, Roksana and Lady Buttons are a trio of potential British-trained improvers that may go well.
