Motown Maggie (10/3), Aprils Joy (4/1), Icee M B A (9/2), Park Hind (11/2), Some Dove (8/1), Merry Poppins (8/1), Game And Glory (9/1), Lighthouse Rose (12/1), Karen's Gift (20/1)

This can go the way of PARK HIND, who went agonisingly close from 5 lb out of the handicap at Ballinrobe last month and with first-time cheekpieces applied to try eke out that bit extra, Andrew Lynch's mare can gain a breakthrough success. Motown Maggie ran her best race when runner-up at Ayr 4 months ago so she heads up the opposition on reappearance, with Aprils Joy and Some Dove also not discounted.
