Mantusis (IRE) Progressive novice and has won each of his last six starts; should be able to defy penalties and make winning sequence seven.
Comex Flyer (IRE) Suited by a sharp trip around the minimum; more needed than when winning handicap off 107 here last time.
Mansa Musa (IRE) Impressive at Huntingdon in May before disappointing at Folkestone later in the month; off since and open to more improvement than most. Looks the main danger to the favourite.
Instant Justice (IRE) No sign of ability on only start to date.
Phal Well beaten on only starts so far; has a long absence to overcome as well.
Bolder Alexander (IRE) Well held on hurdles debut at Bangor last month; looks outclassed in this company.
Ninnolo (IRE) Form figures hardly inspire great confidence.
Dalby Carr Has shown ability but probably no better than plating class.
Nova Girl Well beaten on only start last term; impossible to recommend.
Multigirl No sign of encouragement from three starts to-date.
