Ramillies (5/2), Flegmatik (11/2), Ballykeel (8/1), Must Be Obeyed (8/1), Darver Star (17/2), Sam Brown (9/1), Jerandme (10/1), Percy Warner (10/1), Brideswell Lad (12/1), Escaria Ten (14/1), Champagne Gold (16/1), Fire Attack (18/1), Diol Ker (28/1), Snugsborough Benny (50/1)

Lots with chances but RAMILLIES is taken to bounce back from a poor showing in the Broadway at Cheltenham and resume winning ways on his first venture into handicap company for Willie Mullins. Darver Star is a consistent sort and feared most on the back of his good Wexford second, with Flegmatik and Must Be Obeyed completing the shortlist.
