Sirjack Thomas (9/4), Facethepuckout (7/2), Insignia Of Rank (9/2), Maud Gonne Spirit (11/2), High Altitude (15/2), Trading Point (11/1), Bobby K (12/1), Eastern Racer (12/1), Chrysalism (18/1), Colfer Me (18/1)

Verdict

It may pay to side with FACETHEPUCKOUT, who has a good chance of reversing Galway placings with Sirjack Thomas on these terms, particularly if delivered with his challenge a little later in the race this time. That said, Sirjack Thomas has to be feared, along with new stablemate Trading Point, who isn't the easiest to catch right but is capable when on-song. Colfer Me also enters calculations.
