Bob Olinger (1/8), Direct Fire (6/1), Dunboyne (8/1), Inviction (12/1), Your Bluffing (100/1), Burnt Toast (100/1), Getaway Goldie (150/1), Little Mar (200/1), Two For The Road (200/1), Whatsawomantodo (200/1), Captain Court (200/1), The Deecoy (200/1), Glenswilly Boy (200/1), Justakeg (250/1)

It's hard to oppose BOB OLINGER, who pulled well clear of the rest when second to a potentially high-class novice in Ferny Hollow on debut in this sphere at Gowran. This stiffer test will be right up his street. Inviction shaped well in a bumper here last term and gets the nod ahead of the Gordon Elliott-trained duo Direct Fire and Dunboyne for forecast purposes.
