~ Paddy Power ~ Entries at Cheltenham

Why is Divers still odds against?

Mon Parrain (11/2) , Wishfull Thinking (8) , Divers (10) , Great Endeavour (12) , Ghizao (14) , Robinson Collonges (14) , Aerial (16) , Loosen My Load (16) , Medermit (16) , Noble Prince (16) ,  Tullamore Dew (16)  - Others  16 or more

When Are the weights out?

Noble Prince is a great jumper...could go well.

The mare of Mullins Blazing Tempo with a nice low weight plus allowances could go well.

The weights are out next week. Surely Blazing Tempo will have it all to do given the fact that Wishful Thinking gave her a ton of weight and a beating last season at Punchestown and if she can't win a Kerry National, surely the PP will be out of her reach. No doubt about it that Zaarito is the most interesting of the Irish bunch. He's enterred in the Haldon Gold Cup next Tuesday as well and can defo make up for missing last season

Zaarito should have been entered in the Greatwood, not the Paddy Power.
