1. Bear Story	Successful at 1m and 1m 3f on the all-weather. Finished 8l behind Alenquer when sixth of 8 at 66-1 on his latest outing here over 1m 2f (good) last month.
2. Mac Swiney	Finished nine lengths back last start at Curragh when fresh but goes well at the track. Proven second-up runner winning in two of two attempts including a win at the track last try second-up. Leading hope.
3. Visualisation	He has won four times from 7f to 1m 1f on ground varying from soft to yielding - soft and on the all-weather. Finished 1 1/2l behind Celtic Crown when fifth of 27 at 8-1 on his latest outing here over 1m (yielding) last month.
4. Rumbles Of Thunder	Returns from seven week let-up. Won last start to break maiden at Gowran Park and W J Lee has a strike rate of 32% for this trainer. One for the multiples.
5. Duke De Sessa	Finished fifth last start at Curragh and both wins have come in the dry. Placed once this prep at Leopardstown. Needs the breaks.
6. Aikhal	Finished 11th last start at Royal Ascot when resuming but R L Moore has a strike rate of 28% for this trainer. Won at Listowel in only second-up attempt. Hard to hold out.
7. Vega Magnifico	A winner at 15-2 at Navan over 1m 2f (good) on his latest outing last month, beating Newfoundland by 3 1/2l.
