Gordon Elliott's RIAAN had plenty in hand when accounting for the reopposing San Salvador (who should also go well again) at Cork last month and can make light of a 9 lb rise as he surely has more to offer for his in-form top stable. Hgranca de Thaix impressed when a wide-margin winner of a Galway handicap on his reappearance and is also on the shortlist along with former C&D scorer Captain Conby.
