Grangeclare West (15/8), Champ Kiely (10/3), Irish Point (7/2), Dawn Rising (8/1), Inothewayurthinkin (11/1), Affordale Fury (12/1), Monbeg Park (14/1), Imagine (25/1), Kalanisi Star (28/1)

IRISH POINT's narrow second in the Grade 1 Royal Bond last month is just about the best form on offer and while this step up in trip isn't bound to suit, he looks the most appealing play at the prices. Champ Kiely lost some of his lustre in that aforementioned race at Fairyhouse so stablemate Grangeclare West is probably the big danger.
