Well he should win! Master Minded is the star performer in the Kerrygold Champion Chase. There are 5 runners for the race and two previous winners of the Kerrygold Champion Chase are among the remaining quintet, although Newmill (2006) and Mansony (2007) have no chance. In fact if Master Minded performs to his usual standard they all have no chance!
Rated the best chaser in the world this race looks at his mercy. Rated 186 he has 29 pounds in hand over his rivals (on their Irish Marks) and Ruby Walsh should enjoy the ride. Connections will pick up £136k (Euros) for winning. They say Master Minded is an equine machine, I would say he is a decent cash machine too!
Walsh will be aboard RSA Chase winner Cooldine at 6.40. This should be a little more competitive but not much. Cooldine should win and pick up a cool £61k (Euros) for his trouble.
