The tapes go up on Friday with a cracking six-race card at Prestbury Park that sees the middle four races all LIVE on ITV4.

These races include the Shloer Chase (2:20pm), which has been moved from its old Sunday slot to the Friday and we are expected to see the return to the track of Jonbon, who won this prize 12 months ago.

We’ve another six-race card to look forward to, with four more LIVE on ITV Racing, which includes the Arkle Novices Chase trial (1:45pm) and the Paddy Power Gold Cup (2:20pm).

The Gold Cup is a race top trainer Paul Nicholls won last year with Stage Star (watch below) and the Ditcheat handler is back for more with Ginny’s Destiny, who was an excellent second to Grey Dawning in the Turners Novices’ Chase at the Festival in March.

Ginny’s Destiny is also expected to be the favourite for the Paddy Power Gold Cup with the best horse racing betting sites in the UK.

Top Irish trainer Willie Mullins could also have a nice runner in the final race (4:05) with a horse called Korinthia – the yard also won this 12 months ago.
