Charlie Luciano (4/7), Starman (3/1), Up And Out (5/1), He Picked Us (10/1), Step Into My Shoes (14/1), Ardad Derek (16/1), Hey Skipper (40/1), Iron Allen (50/1), Golden Forest (50/1), Ernest Loring (66/1), Saddle In The Rain (66/1), Arnacoeur (80/1), Goodie Girl (80/1), Comeragh Belle (80/1), Cappacurry Croi (100/1), Colourful Lil (125/1)

Having finished runner-up twice in this sphere last year, CHARLIE LUCIANO gets the verdict to go one better arriving on the back of a spin on the level at Dundalk early last month. Starman was a very disappointing favourite at Clonmel last month, but he may well get back on track here, with Up And Out and He Picked Us another couple to consider.
