Josies Orders (5/2), Blue Templar (11/4), Ballycasey (10/3), Hurricane Darwin (10/3), Ballinasilla (12/1), Singing Banjo (20/1), Enniskillen (20/1), An Rinceoir Alainn (25/1), Fergiethelegend (50/1), Ballyfinboy (50/1)

Josie's Orders won here 12 months ago following the gelding finishing in the frame in the La Touche. The 11-year-old finished third of nine in that contest on Thursday and is likely to take some beating here. But it could be a changing of the guard as BLUE TEMPLAR can follow up on his success over C&D in the opening contest of the meeting on Tuesday. The eight-year-old can progress in this contest at the expense of Hurricane Darwin and An Rinceoir Alainn who is better than her performance over C&D on Tuesday for trainer Peter Maher.
