Paddy Power Gold Cup Form

Looking at the Paddy Power Gold Cup form we start with antepost favourite Silverburn 7/2 market leader with sponsor Paddy Power is among a maximum field of 20 declared today for a tremendous renewal of the £150,000 Paddy Power Gold Cup (2.35pm) at The Open on Saturday, November 15. Ruby Walsh's mount is one of two runners for champion trainer Paul Nicholls, the other being Turko who was third to Our Vic over the course and distance in the Grade One Ryanair Chase at this year's Festival. Nicholls is still seeking his first Paddy Power Gold Cup success.

Ferdy Murphy took the Paddy Power Gold Cup last year with L'Antartique and this time the North Yorkshire trainer relies on Three Mirrors, triumphant over subsequent Munster National winner Dear Villez when the pair met at Ayr in April. There has also been a positive vibe around Piraya from the David Pipe yard. The French Grade Three winner is having his first start in Britain and lines up alongside stablemate Vodka Bleu who was runner-up to the Jonjo O'Neill-trained Exotic Dancer in the 2006 Paddy Power Gold Cup. O'Neill has declared the talented but frustrating Don't Push It.

Nicky Henderson won the contest with Fondmort in 2003 and the Seven Barrows handler is double-handed this year. The Queen's six-year-old Barbers Shop was a smart novice last term, finishing runner-up in the Listed Jewson Novices' Handicap Chase at The Festival, while Fleet Street was fourth in the same race.

Ashley Brook bounced back to form emphatically with victory in the Grade Two Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter on November 4. That was the Kevin Bishop-trained 10-year-old's first success over fences since he clinched the Grade One John Smith's Maghull Novices' Chase at Aintree in April, 2005.

Mister McGoldrick shoulders top-weight of 11st 12lb. The popular Sue Smith-trained 11-year-old enjoyed his biggest success at The Festival in March when winning the Grade Three Racing Post Plate over the same distance. He ran a fine first race of the current season when fifth to Knowhere in the Grade Two Old Roan Chase at Aintree last month.
