Nigel Twiston-Davies' Haydock specialist and former winner Bristol De Mai is among the 13 entries for this Saturday's Peter Marsh Chase at Haydock Park.
The popular grey is now a 12-year-old but has always thrived at Haydock, particularly when landing the Grade One Betfair Chase three times in 2017, 2018 and 2020.
The Simon Munir and Isaac Souede-owned veteran has won five times overall at the Merseyside track, including in the 2017 Peter Marsh Chase. But on his most recent start he was a distant fourth behind impressive winner Protektorat when bidding for a record-equalling fourth victory in the Betfair Chase on his seasonal return in Haydock in November.
