'We think she's a very good mare' - trainers and riders on their festive fancies

The Hollow Ginge clears the water jump en route to winning the feature Somerby Chase
The Hollow Ginge: expected to go well on testing ground in the Welsh Grand NationalCredit: Edward Whitaker

I’m really looking forward to running Hollow Games in the winners' bumper at Leopardstown on Tuesday.
Gordon Elliott

It's great to get the chance to ride at Leopardstown on Sunday and I'm also really looking forward to hopefully getting back on Beacon Edge in the Matheson Hurdle on Tuesday. He's got to step up but he's talented and his last run behind Honeysuckle in the Hatton's Grace Hurdle was very good.

There are the obvious ones such as Epatante, Shishkin and Altior, but I also like Son Of Camas in the novice handicap chase on Boxing Day at Kempton. It’s his first run over fences but he’s always looked like a chaser to me. He jumps his fences very well at home and two and a half miles is right up his street.
