Nolan looking forward to Noble Prince’s Roan run

Noble Prince will cross the Irish Sea to make his seasonal reappearance in the two-and-a-half-mile Betfred Monet’s Garden Old Roan Chase at Aintree on Saturday.

The eight-year-old suffered an injury on his final start of the campaign in the Ryanair, but trainer Paul Nolan is looking forward to getting him back on the racecourse this weekend.

Nolan said: “All going well, the plan is for him to run on Saturday and I’m very happy with him at home.
