Gordon Elliott is mob-handed, fielding eight runners, but it's the Joseph O'Brien-trained A WAVE OF THE SEA who earns the vote. He didn't jump at all well at Listowel last time, but is a big player judged on solid efforts in a Tipperary Grade 3 and the Galway Plate during the summer, plus he's now 6 lb below the mark off which he finished fourth in this race 12 months ago. The Goffer, Frontal Assault and Gevrey, all members of the Elliott battalion, are feared most in that order of preference.

  1. A WAVE OF THE SEA (IRE)
  2. THE GOFFER (IRE)
  3. FRONTAL ASSAULT (IRE)
