Lord Scoundrel, winner of the Galway Plate in July, will be attempting to become the first horse to complete the Plate-Kerry National double in the same year since Life Of A Lord won both races for Aidan O’Brien in 1995.

Again the mount of 5lb claimer Donagh Meyler, Lord Scoundrel is one of six runners for Gordon Elliott, who will be seeking a first win in the event.

Elliott is also represented by Clarcam, Killer Crow and Wrath Of Titans for Gigginstown House Stud, plus Realt Mor and Shadow Catcher.
