Rainbow heads Paddy Power entries Finian's Rainbow heads the weights for Saturday's Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham at the latest entry stage. The presence of Nicky Henderson's former Champion Chase winner is good news for connections of ante-post favourite Dynaste as they weigh up whether to have a tilt at this valuable handicap or to wait for the Betfair Chase at Haydock. The Pond House handler has no shortage of options for Saturday's contest with the long absent Salut Flo and Ballynagour - an impressive winner at Warwick on his UK bow - other possibilities. Henderson has scratched Captain Conan but could still be represented by his impressive Festival winner Rajdhani Express and last year's third Nadiya De La Vega, as well as the top-weight. Paul Nicholls lifted the Gold Cup 12 months ago and Woolcombe Folly could attempt to give the Ditcheat handler a repeat success. Katenko was talked of as a possible Cheltenham Gold Cup contender last season only for his campaign to be cut short but the seven year old could make his eagerly awaited reappearance for Venetia Williams. Leading fancies Johns Spirit and Champion Court retain their places in the 28 strong field with Walkon, Tap Night and Irish raiders, Texas Jack, Hidden Cyclone and Gift Of Dgab among other interesting possibles.
