Cheltenham Gold Cup contender Grey Dawning leads the British charge for Dan Skelton and connections will be hoping that he can go one better than his second-placed finish in last month's Betfair Chase.

Spillane's Tower has been supplemented for the race after finishing a narrow second to Gold Cup favourite Fact To File in the John Durkan last time out and he will race in the UK for the first time.

Last season's Kauto Star Novices' Chase winner Il Est Francais returns to the scene of his triumph but the French-trained six-year-old was pulled up in the Prix la Haye Jousselin last month after going off as favourite.

Irish Champion Chase winner Banbridge, who was off the pace on his reappearance in a Group 2 at Navan before unseating his rider in the Hilly Way Chase three weeks ago, is also prominent in the betting.

Elsewhere, the returning L'Homme Presse and former winner Bravemansgame are available at longer odds.
