Galon De Vauzelle (5/2), Arverne (7/2), Super Citizen (5/1), Francois (6/1), Hymie Weiss (13/2), Battle Of Mirbat (7/1), Hoke Colburn (8/1), Presenting Point (16/1), Wee Small Hours (25/1), Hollybank King (50/1)

The combination of this drop in trip and the drying ground should help ARVERNE, who hasn't quite got home over 3m the last twice. He remains on a fair mark and gets the nod ahead of Galon de Vauzelle, who went close for the second time over fences when just touched off at Navan last month and another bold show is anticipated. The consistent Presenting Point should make his presence felt and Hoke Colburn makes some each-way appeal.
