Donald McCain’s 11-year-old is among 12 entries for the 2m6f Totepool.com Premier Chase at Kelso, a race he finished second in last year prior to winning the National.

Ballabriggs also holds entries for the Greatwood Gold Cup at Newbury and William Hill Grimthorpe Chase at Doncaster, both on Saturday.
