The Changing Man (4/1), Hardy Bloke (9/2), Jerrash (11/2), Brandy Mcqueen (6/1), Get A Tonic (13/2), Johnson's Blue (17/2), Party Business (10/1), Onagatheringstorm (10/1), Mill Green (14/1)

Plenty to ponder despite the relatively small field but Irish-raider HARDY BLOKE arrives on the back of his best effort yet when third over this sort of trip at Leopardstown 2 weeks ago and, representing a very shrewd outfit, he could well be worth siding with to come out on top. Plumpton-scorer Jerrash and The Changing Man head up the dangers, whilst Party Business is also worth keeping an eye on.
