Curraheen Princess (11/4), Gordon Bennett (4/1), Strong Johnson (9/2), Laugh A Minute (7/1), Iva Batt (11/1), Urban Beat (16/1), Screen Siren (16/1), Master Matt (18/1), Livingston Range (20/1), Shelly Banks (20/1), Pretty Boy Floyd (20/1), Thunder Eclipse (22/1), Dream Today (25/1), Shabaaby (25/1), Only Spoofing (50/1), Chocquinto (66/1)

The handicapper has given a real chance to STRONG JOHNSON as he finds himself 6 lb lower than when runner-up in this race 12 months ago despite posting at least respectable efforts on all 3 outings this year. Curraheen Princess hasn't finished out of the first 2 in her last 6 starts and is a must for the shortlist. Gordon Bennett has a few good efforts to his name in big fields here and also merits consideration along with Iva Batt.
