Rioja Alta (4/1), Sir Allen (4/1), Bridge Of Dawn (5/1), Timeless Piece (13/2), No Hassle (13/2), Oriole (9/1), Pale Moonlight (12/1), Big Island (14/1), Queen Of Seduction (16/1), Butterfly Garden (18/1), Nomenclature (25/1), In From The Cold (33/1), Ayrton (125/1)
The vote goes to BIG ISLAND, who has been given a chance by the handicapper, now 5 lb below the mark off which he was third of 16 at Limerick on his latest start in this sphere in April. He has finished runner-up twice over hurdles since, including last time at Kilbeggan, and conditions won't be a problem for this 6-y-o (has won on soft/heavy). Though below par on their latest starts, Oriole and Pale Moonlight could both take a hand in the finish if on-song.
