Rocket Science (7/4), Darkened (5/2), Dedillon (5/1), Mean Fomhair (11/2), Whoareyouanyway (6/1), Talking Tough (7/1), Luke Short (8/1), Frank Arthur (8/1), Lincoln (8/1), Ocean Monarch (12/1), Beckwith Place (14/1), Raphael (20/1), Blyton (33/1)

Preference is for ROCKET SCIENCE, who upped her game when taking a Galway maiden last month and remains open to further improvement on handicap debut. Luke Short and Darkened should also go well.
