The Champion Chase at Down Royal takes pride of the place as the first Grade 1 of the core National Hunt season.
Racegoers were treated to a thrilling renewal last year as Gerri Colombe, who subsequently finished second in the Gold Cup, rallied to beat the previous winner Envoi Allen in a tight finish.
It could once again be the starting point for Gordon Elliott’s leading staying chaser, although a small field is expected to go to post for the three-mile contest.
Champion Chase odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key details for this year’s renewal are below.
