The Grade 1 Goffs Irish Arkle Novice Steeplechase at Leopardstown’s Dublin Racing Festival sees Marine Nationale installed as the red-hot favourite to follow up his beginners' chase win at the same track with a victory at the highest level, however, he has a formidable rival in Found A Fifty, who won the Grade 1 novice chase over Christmas at Leopardstown.

Found A Fifty's trainer, Gordon Elliott, told Denis Kirwan he is looking forward to running him in what is a hot race.

“Yeah, look he is in good form and came out of the race very well," said Elliott.

"We are looking forward to running him again and it is a good race. There's obviously six declared in it.

"Obviously, you have Facile Vega and Barry Connell's horse (Marine Nationale) who was very good the last day, and is the horse we all have to beat."
