Blackstairmountain among eight in running for Arkle
Smart hurdler Blackstairmountain recorded his second win from as many starts over fences when landing the Racing Post Novice Chase over course and distance last month and is set to be the sole representative of Willie Mullins in this Grade One heat.
Flemenstar comes from the less well known stable of Peter Casey, but has earned a step up in class following two impressive performances at Navan and Naas.
