Buildmeupbuttercup (6/5), Camphor (9/4), Bigbadandbeautiful (4/1), Powerful Ted (11/1), Tandem (12/1), Rebellito (14/1)

The Willie Mullins-trained BUILDMEUPBUTTERCUP can add to a list of winners this week having previously appeared at this venue in the days previous. The six-year-old can improve on a taking effort over hurdles on Thursday to win on the Flat for the second time. Another National Hunt trainer, Gordon Elliott can saddle Bigbadandbeautiful to produce a bold bid while Camphor, trained by Jessica Harrington and Tandem for Dermot Weld look capable of hitting the frame.
