Olympic Man (2/5), Pour Les Filles (15/8), Armed And Fabulous (9/4), Free Flowing (17/2), Tom Kelly (10/1), Burru (66/1), On The Banks (80/1), Squire Ohara (150/1), Leva Tip (150/1), Soldat Flamboyant (200/1), Rusheen (250/1), Smart And Sharp (250/1)

OLYMPIC MAN made a promising start for Willie Mullins after a long absence when third here and can build on it now to fend off Gordon Elliott's interesting hurdling newcomer Pour Les Filles, who brings useful winning bumper form to the table. Armed And Fabulous, a stablemate of the selection, and Tom Kelly can fight it out for minor honours.
