Milo Lises (6/5), Gorgeous Tom (11/8), Boldog (5/1), Cappucino (10/1), Ballybrack Wood (14/1), Aggi (25/1), Inforapound (100/1), Lacken Forest (150/1), Matagorda (200/1), The Lucky Lobster (250/1), Misty Milan (250/1), Backfromtheraces (250/1), Gentle Lady (250/1), Coulrophobia (300/1), You Make Me Smile (300/1)

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal and it's MILO LISES who gets the nod for Willie Mullins having been sent off favourite but not getting very far on his hurdling debut at Navan just over 3 weeks ago. The obvious threat is Gorgeous Tom, who improved plenty from hurdling debut when finishing runner-up to a subsequent winner on the same card. Boldog and Cappucino are a couple of hurdling debutants also worth keeping a close eye on.
