Brave Troop (13/8), Portnacoo (4/1), Prince Quattro (5/1), Lady Bresil (11/2), Luimneach (8/1), Lygon Lad (18/1), Cozone (25/1), Aine's Lad (28/1), Mary's Pride (40/1), Doctor Nightingale (66/1), Torquay Road (66/1), Nathaniel's Dream (66/1), Drum Roll (100/1)

BRAVE TROOP had any amount in hand when making successful handicap hurdle debut for new trainer Charles Byrnes at Thurles and even a 16 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him with further improvement likely. Second choice is Luimneach who had an excuse at Punchestown last time and had been in good form prior to that. Lady Bresil and Gordon Elliott handicap newcomer Lygon Lad complete the shortlist.
