Garden tops Power field

Monet’s Garden has been handed top weight of 11st 12lb for the £150,000 (€186,308) Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham on Saturday week.

Nicky Richards’ charge has not travelled to Prestbury Park since disappointing when favourite in the 2007 Ryanair Chase and failed to shine on his seasonal bow in Aintree’s Old Roan Chase.
