The Model Kingdom (3/1), Nikini (10/3), Saylavee (7/2), Champagne Problem (7/1), Liberty Dance (8/1), Carrigmoorna Queen (12/1), Rioga Choice (16/1), Doyenna (16/1), Magical Zoe (18/1), Outback Flyer (25/1), Paidi's Passion (125/1)

Willie Mullins saddles 4 as he bids for a fifth win in this since 2014. Paul Townend is on NIKINI who gets the nod to stretch her unbeaten hurdle record to 3, perhaps at the expense of stablemate Saylavee, who was an impressive winner on her Gowran hurdle debut. Henry de Bromhead pair Magical Zoe and Rioga Choice are other interesting contenders in a fascinating Grade 3 full of unexposed sorts.
