Punchestown Champion Novice Chase Odds 2012

Another cracking Grade One epic, this race will be one of the highlights of the whole Festival in 2011 and always attracts a lot of interest from punters and fans alike. This is another race on day 1 that always attracts a good field as those horse with big chasing dreams for the following year go head-to-head at 6.40pm this evening.

We are sure to see a high class field for this one once again to follow up a cracking race last year and all eyes will be on the front two in the betting who are the exciting Quito De La Roque and Quel Esprit. The Willie Mullins trained Quel Esprit has been running well recently but has fallen on his last two starts so all eyes will be on his jumping at Punchestown today.
