Kemboy leads our team for the Paddy Power Irish Gold Cup (3.30). He's shown he likes the track and made a pleasing start to the season when fourth over the course and trip at Christmas. That run has brought him on and on the form he showed last season he would look the one to beat.

Bellshill won the race last year but is facing a tougher task this time and Cadmium will be going the distance for the first time. He looks to have plenty to do.

Faugheen's many fans will be looking forward to seeing him in the Grade 1 Flogas Novice Chase (3.00) and I'm glad to report that he seems in great form. He was impressive at Limerick last time and the trip and the ground will suit. We're looking forward to another big run from the old warrior.
