Bellshill bids to give Willie Mullins his sixth win in the last eight renewals of the At The Races Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse on Saturday.

The three-time Grade One winner looked set to take the chasing world by storm early last season, but he fell in the Flogas Novice Chase before having to settle for third behind Might Bite in the RSA, and he hasn't been seen since.

He has been given an entry in the Grand National, though, and a bold performance on his comeback could book his Aintree ticket.

Perhaps predictably, Gordon Elliott provides the main obstacles to success for Bellshill, with Troytown hero Mala Beach out to atone for a lacklustre Irish Gold Cup display, and 2016 Galway Plate victor Lord Scoundrel also on something of a retrieval mission.

A Genie In Abottle and Val De Ferbet have claims on the ratings too.

Elliott holds the key to the opening Winning Fair Juvenile Hurdle (1.45), with top-weight Mitchouka striving to cement his position towards the head of the ante-post Fred Winter market.

After twice chasing home Espoir D'Allen, the French recruit boosted his confidence with a dominant success here.

Salsify is back for another campaign in the Download The Free At The Races App Hunters Chase.

Rodger Sweeney's dual Cheltenham Festival winner isn't getting any younger, though, and will do well to get to grips with Sizing Coal.

Laid Back Luke tries to supplement last week's Gowran Park triumph in the Tommy Carberry Handicap Hurdle.

He is 8lb higher but the runner-up went close again at Punchestown during the week so the form is strong.

Cadmium ran well for a long way on his return from a lengthy layoff, and Mullins will expect him to build on that in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Beginners Chase.

Mullins and Elliott also go head-to-head with once-raced point-to-point winners in the Ian Smith Memorial (Pro/Am) Flat Race, with the Closutton handler responsible for Stay Humble and Elliott saddling Sometime Soon, who cost 225,000 pounds.
