Gringo D'aubrelle (6/4), Ingenious Stroke (5/2), Blazing Khal (10/3), Salseros (11/2), Aspen Fior (16/1), Champagne Vacation (16/1), Explosive Boy (25/1), Barnatullow (50/1), Carfax (66/1), Galway Johnny (100/1), Drop The Harrow (125/1), Ballyegan Park (125/1), Steelers Appeal (200/1), Fantastic Allen (250/1), Carry On Buddy (300/1), Grail (300/1), Burnin Rubber (300/1)

Verdict

This ought to be dominated by hurdles newcomers. BLAZING KHAL is bred to do better over obstacles so it was encouraging that he landed a bumper last year, so he is marginally preferred to point winners Gringo D'aubrelle and Ingenious Stroke.

  1. BLAZING KHAL (IRE)
  2. GRINGO D'AUBRELLE (FR)
  3. INGENIOUS STROKE (IRE)
