Prairie Dancer (6/4), Plains Indian (5/2), Flaming Moon (4/1), Sizing Mauritius (4/1), Dartington (8/1), Ideal Pal (12/1), Gaelic Arc (14/1)

Impossible to rule any of the septet out but the vote goes to sole 4-y-o PRAIRIE DANCER. Joseph O'Brien's charge made the most of a good opportunity to open his account over hurdles at Cork last month and he can take a step forward and follow up in this better company. Sizing Mauritius shades the vote for the forecast spot over Gaelic Arc.
