Cheltenham Gold Cup contender Corbetts Cross is amongst the favourites in the betting odds to win the Ascot Chase on Saturday.
(Odds will display when the market is available)
Mark Walsh will be on board last season's National Hunt Chase winner, who is seen as a potentially shrewd each-way alternative to favourite Galopin Des Champs in the Gold Cup.
Venetia Williams' stable star L'Homme Presse, who holds entries in both the Gold Cup and the Grand National, arrives in winning form after triumphing in the Cotswold Chase last month.
1965 Chase winner Pic D'Orhy completes the trio of quality horses who will jostle for favouritism at Ascot this weekend.
Willie Mullins is yet to win the Ascot Chase in his illustrious career and he will be hoping that Blue Lord can recapture his best form after a couple of disappointing outings so far this season.
The rest of the field is made up by Le Patron, who was last seen when finishing 10th out of 11 in December's Gold Cup, and outsider Flegmatik, who flies the flag for the Skeltons.
