Noble Yeats (4/11), Old Town Garde (5/2), Mr Josiey Wales (3/1), Valyblue (12/1), Salinas (12/1), Brandy Harbour (16/1), Rathcabbin (50/1), Stormy Glenn (100/1), Clogga Bay Girl (150/1), Mrs Watson (150/1), Escapefromcustody (150/1), Frozen House (250/1)

Verdict

NOBLE YEATS had an excuse for his heavy defeat in a Grade 2 Leopardstown bumper last time and should be more than capable of winning a race like this based on his easy bumper success at Thurles in January. Mr Josiey Wales won what has turned out to be a good point and is also respected on Rules debut.
