Good Lord Murphy (IRE) Not without ability and won here last season; slightly disappointing after that run but stays this trip well; seems to cope with most surfaces and goes well fresh.
Celibate (IRE) Has not been at his best this season; trainer believes he has too much weight but has been crying out for this trip; seems better with cut in the ground.
The Toiseach (IRE) Seems to either win or pull up; looks to be the one who will be suited by fast ground but has not finished a race for over two years.
Djeddah (FR) Not the force he was and has a poor run/win ratio; would prefer softer ground and hard to see him winning here.
Lance Armstrong (IRE) Generally consistent and fit from recent run here; should go well for in-form trainer and will cope with the ground unless it come up really fast.
