Aidan O’Brien’s four-year-old, off the track since disappointing in France in June, is now 3-1 from 5s with Cashmans after some strong support, with William Hill and Ladbrokes both offering the same price.

Vinnie Roe, who will be bidding for an amazing fifth consecutive win in the race, is 5-2 favourite with Hills while Ladbrokes make him the 11-4 market leader along with John Oxx’s Shalapour.
