FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Given the impressive record Gordon Elliott has had in this race in recent years, WESTERN FOLD has to hold leading claims. Having reached the frame on his previous two starts over fences, the six-year-old opened his account with an easy win at Tipperary last time. His prominent racing style and, solid jumping should stand to the son of Westerner around this tight track. A Penny A Hundred, who won her Beginners Chase around here last September, has to be a contender for Willie Mullins. Anna McGuinness claims a valuable 7lb off the champion trainers only representative in the contest. Linden Arden is another worthy of consideration having proven his ability to act around here in the past.
