Formscan - Greaneteen has landed the last two renewals of this race in impressive fashion and looks sure to give another good account of himself. However, this prize may go across the Irish Sea to CAPTAIN GUINNESS, who was 24 lengths ahead of the former when runner-up in the Champion Chase last month and he looks the likeliest winner today. The Henry De Bromhead-trained gelding won a Grade 2 at Navan in November and narrowly edges the vote. Its fascinating that Nicky Henderson allows his top novice chaser Jonbon to line-up here in open company after a bloodless victory at Aintree a fortnight ago and he warrants the utmost respect.
