Joyeux Vivo (5/1), Buachaillbocht (6/1), Pacini (8/1), Silver King (8/1), Lucky Lyreen (17/2), Banprionsa (12/1), Our Boy Rocky (12/1), Chosen Diamond (14/1), Secrecies Of Stone (14/1), Pax (14/1), The Other Mozzie (16/1), Prince Palace (16/1), Barry Lyndon (18/1), Explosive Boy (22/1), Shraheen (25/1), Ceroc (50/1)

The finish may well be dominated by JP McManus-owned representatives, with handicap debutant PAX taken to strike. He shaped as though getting the hang of things when fourth in a big-field Punchestown maiden last month and this step back up in trip looks a good move. It's no great surprise that the owner's retained jockey, Mark Walsh, sides with the progressive Buachaillbocht and, despite going up 11 lb for his latest success, he is a big danger. Joyeux Vivo is third choice.
