Race Tip

An excellent renewal of the Irish Gold Cup which has been won by GALOPIN DES CHAMPS (6) for the last three years. The ten-year-old ran well on seasonal return last month when 3. 25L third in the course and distance G1 Savills Chase. Leading contender. Stablemate GAELIC WARRIOR (5) found success contesting the 2m4f G1 John Durkan Memorial Punchestown Chase before an excellent third at Kempton Park (UK) attempting the 3m G1 King George VI Chase. Big chance. FACT TO FILE (3) was a good third in this event twelve months ago prior to wining the G1 Festival Trophy (Ryanair Chase) at the Cheltenham Festival. Every chance. CHAMP KIELY (2) rates an each-way chance.
