Anotherway (11/8), Lark In The Mornin (9/2), Ascending (11/2), Billericay Dickie (6/1), Rainbow Trail (15/2), Montecam (12/1), Tounsivator (16/1), Arctic Gale (16/1), Fenway Park (20/1), Eagle Fang (22/1), Ataboycharlie (25/1), Mighty Bandit (25/1), Silver King (80/1), Ballycashin (100/1), Scriabin (200/1)

LARK IN THE MORNIN was pretty impressive in the Fred Winter at the Cheltenham Festival and, with the promise of better to come from this 4-y-o, he is taken to follow up here. The main danger is clearly Anotherway, who landed a C&D maiden in good style here in January and he was bang there when exiting at the second-last in a Grade 2 contest at Fairyhouse next time. His stablemate Billericay Dickie and Tounsivator are both open to improvement, a remark which also applies to Rainbow Trail.
