Slate Lane (1/3), Camilla's Choice (9/4), Champ Royal (11/2), Horizon D'or (17/2), Merveillo (10/1), Bushmill Boy (10/1), Dynali (25/1), Moirai (40/1), Hedgehopper (100/1), Ballynaveen Boy (150/1)

This looks a strong race of its type but it's still hard to escape the claims of SLATE LANE, who was backed as though defeat was out of the question at Cartmel and there's a very good chance his opening mark underestimates him. Fellow last-time-out winners Champ Royal and Camilla's Choice head the opposition.
