Reigning champ Angel in Kerry National mix Last year's winner Rogue Angel is among the 36 entries for the Guinness Kerry National Handicap Chase at Listowel on September 14th. Mouse Morris' eight-year-old pipped Urano 12 months ago and then enjoyed an even bigger payday in the Irish National back in the spring. Morris has also put in First Lieutenant, Thunder And Roses and Folsom Blue, and said: "We have four in the race and we'll see a bit closer to the time what we'll run. "They are all in good shape, but the race is a week earlier this year so we'll know a bit more over the weekend and depending on how things pan out, we could have two or three runners." Alelchi Inois has been handed top weight of 11st 10lb and is one of a handful of Kerry National possibles for Willie Mullins. The champion trainer said: "Alelchi Inois, Ballycasey and Devils Bride are all in good form and the plan is to run to run all three. It's a very good prize to aim them at. "Ballycasey won well at Killarney, and Alelchi Inois and Devils Bride came out of Galway in good form and the aim at the moment is to run all three. I'd say Kings Wharf will struggle to get in." Galway Plate hero Lord Scoundrel spearheads a Gordon Elliott team of seven that also includes Clarcam and Tiger Roll, and the handler said: "Anything that gets in will run. There is such good prize-money, we have to support these races. "Lord Scoundrel came out of Galway well, and Listowel could suit Clarcam as he didn't get home at Galway." Your Busy could attempt to regain the crown he won in 2014, while Gas Line Boy represents British interests. His trainer Ian Williams said: "The plan is to run. He has been running well over here and he should have nice weight on his back and if he makes the cut, we will bring him over. "Ideally he'd like slow ground - on good ground he might be taken off his feet a little bit in the early part of the race. "But I think the track will suit - I've never been over before, but I am looking forward to it and hopefully the horse will acquit himself well."
