The Royal and Sun Alliance Chase has looked a one horse race with Ollie Magern dominating the book at 5-1, but the betting has been lit up today by Lord Of Illusion with Hills going 10-1 from 16-1.

Also supported is Martin Pipe's Comply or Die, now also 10-1, while Sunday's winner Royal Paradise is clipped in again for the Sun Alliance Hurdle, now 11-2 second favourite.

A winner this afternoon, Always Waining, has been trimmed from 40-1 to 33-1 by Hills for the Triumph.
