Maiden winner Fiesta De Vega missed the whole of last year while Minister For Magic has switched yards having returned the 50/1 winner at Killarney back in October.

Gerrots finished along way behind the selection while L'enclume steps up from a mile after a better effort here last month. Devilry is a newcomer to note as a sister to a Listed winner and a half-sister to three other winners.
