Norton Hill (5/2), Prince Des Fichaux (10/3), Spike Jones (7/2), Paricolor (11/2), Martha Brae (17/2), Good News (10/1), The Street (14/1), The Tin Miner (16/1), Beaufort West (18/1), Carlow Farmer (33/1)

Plenty in with a shout but NORTON HILL looks the way to go given this son of Fame And Glory now gets the chance to tackle a staying trip for the first time having shaped well over shorter distances on both starts for his current handler. Course winner Beaufort West heads the list of dangers, although both Paricolor and Good News are weighted to have a say too in a competitive handicap.
