The 3m5f contest is scheduled to start at 5pm, with 30 horses expected to take part.

Among the market leaders is Gaillard Du Mesnil for the trainer/jockey combination of Willie Mullins and Paul Townend.

Novices have a good record in the race and this six-year-old was last seen finishing third behind L'Homme Presse and Ahoy Senor in the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival.

Full Time Score is also expected to be popular with punters as the the Henry de Bromhead-trained gelding will be partnered by Rachael Blackmore, who is aiming to win the race for the first time.

Gordon Elliott trains just over half an hour away from Fairyhouse racecourse and has 11 runners in the race, as well as one of the reserves, with Farclas and Run Wild Fred among his leading chances.

Two other local trainers chasing a fairytale win with fancied runners are Francis Casey (Max Flamingo) and Matthew Smith (Ronald Pump).
