The pair will be joined in the field this evening by the likes of Lieutenant Colonel, Zaidpour and Thousand Stars in what promises to be an enthralling contest.

Also on the card today at Punchestown will be the Ryanair Novice Chase and the La Touche Cup with the first of eight races getting underway at 3.40pm.
