11/1

| 11th | 5 | 7 |
Whip Cracker (G)
[P]
Largely in very good form without winning in handicaps last season, runner-up on 3 occasions. Has gone well fresh before so a likely player with Oisin Murphy up (successful on him before) off a handy-looking mark.

13/2

| 15th | 6 | 13 |

Pink Oxalis (M)
[B]
A 4-time winner last term, including over C&D. Probably needed the run after 4 months off when twelfth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (8f) 23 days ago, not knocked about. One to consider.
