The Richard Lee seven year old, Le Beau Bai heads the betting for this latest running of the prestigious Blue Square Gold Cup at Haydock Park this Saturday. Third, behind Dream Alliance, when favourite for the 2009 Welsh National at the end of last year, this popular little chaser is as game as they come who is still very progressive. He certainly proved himself a tough nut to crack when winning a fortnight ago at Bangor in a 3 mile hurdle event off a hurdling mark of 134, which would seem an ideal warm up for this race. Although he will be asked to run off a mark of 148 for this race, we still think that puts him bang there in the handicap, giving him a tremendous chance. He has odds of 6/1 with Ladbrokes.com.
Many see this race as a major trial for the forthcoming Grand National, it is therefore no surprise to see last year’s National winner, Mon Mome in the field. Trainer, Venetia Williams has been quite cautious when running this ten year old this season, but she must know that he will come into this race on a good mark of 153, which puts well in contention. Of course his target is undoubtedly Aintree but in our opinion he definately has each way claims or better in this and with odds of 12/1 he should not be ignored.

Despite being raised in the handicap to 141, the David Pipe trained, The Package has a great chance if any assessment on his ability is based on his last run at Cheltenham. In that race he had several National hopefuls behind him when winning a good quality handicap and the hoist up in the weights should not trouble him too much unless the ground really cuts up. He currently disputes favouritism with Le Beau Bai but is backable at 7/1 with Ladbrokes.
Dream Alliance who won the Welsh National this season is another who should not be discounted. He has gone up 9lb for that win but even at 151 he would be in with a big chance. Trainer, Phillip Hobbs is a past master of following up big wins with another one and he has been very bullish about his charge for most of the week; Dream Alliance can be backed at 7/1.
