Disko faces six rivals at Punchestown Disko, who lowered the colours of last week's Irish Grand National hero Our Duke at Leopardstown in February, tops seven runners in the Growise Champion Novice Chase at Punchestown on Tuesday . Third to Yorkhill in the JLT Novice Chase at Cheltenham on his only subsequent start, the six-year-old is one of two entries from the Noel Meade stable along with A Genie In Abottle. Facing the Meade duo are A Toi Phil, Acapella Bourgeois, Alpha Des Obeaux. Anibale Fly and Velocity Boy. Labaik will try to back up his surprise success in Cheltenham's Supreme Novices' Hurdle when he lines up for the Herald Champion Novice Hurdle. Gordon Elliott's grey had a reputation for refusing to start, but was on his best behaviour as he floored Melon by two and a quarter lengths. Melon renews rivalry and is joined by two others from the Willie Mullins stable in Bunk Off Early and Cilaos Emery in a seven-strong field. Pingshou, who was well-beaten in the Supreme, bounced back in style to win at Aintree. Joining the Colin Tizzard horse from the UK is Peter The Mayo from the Neil Mulholland stable. Forge Meadow, from the Jessica Harrington yard, makes up the list.
