Great Grey is the only course and distance winner in the line-up though that victory came on fast ground and he ran poorly on testing going when last seen in October. Feminista ran poorly at Gowran last time having twice been narrowly beaten there but she's won on heavy ground so could bounce back. At War is still a maiden and didn't get going at Galway last week, nor did Kourvoisier in the same race, but Madaket Mystery has never run a bad race and will enjoy the conditions so has to be on the shortlist. KODIAK PRINCE was beaten 2 lengths behind Take My Hand at Leopardstown but reversed the form when landing a Gowran Handicap a couple of weeks ago. He's up 11lb but is still progressing and can defy the extra.
