Doctor Nightingale (15/8), Annie Agnew (2/1), Cossack Chach (5/2), Spinning Web (5/1), Emotivo (6/1), Millennium Rose (8/1), Burvea (33/1), Justwatchmedance (80/1), Bedelia (100/1)

Verdict

A few in with a shout but COSSACK CHACH made a winning start over hurdles at Killarney 6 weeks ago and with further improvement on the cards, Joseph O'Brien's charge gets the verdict to follow up. The main threat may emerge from Annie Agnew, who found just a well-backed favourite too strong on her hurdling bow at Ballinrobe recently, while Gordon Elliott's pair Doctor Nightingale and Millennium Rose also warrant plenty of respect.
