Petit Mouchoir (4/5), Lady Buttons (4/1), Diego Du Charmil (5/1), Shantou Rock (13/2), Kauto Riko (25/1), Delegate (40/1)
Irish trainers have taken this three times in the past five years with Henry de Bromhead providing two of those successes and he looks to have a fine chance of landing the race again via the likely market leader Petit Mouchoir. However, he had a tough race at Cheltenham and more significantly, he won’t have it easy up front this time either with Shantou Rock likely to keep him company; that could set the race up for LADY BUTTONS. She has taken well to fences displaying a very sound jumping technique and travelling well. Diego Du Charmil deserves a chance in this grade having passed up an opportunity to run in Thursday’s Red Rum Handicap Chase.
- Lady Buttons
