Ceanannas Mor (IRE) The one to beat today even though he has not lived up to his tall home reputation; will be suited by ground and trip.
Aircon (IRE) Fairly lightly raced and will have come on for his chase debut over course and distance last time; needs to improve to win today.
Versicium (FR) Stamina is the major doubt but still capable of upsetting the odds with trainer and jockey in such good form.
