If Denman run Saturday – who rides?

Question

Probably Ruby Walsh. In theory Nicholls could have three runners in the Argento Chase, with both Taranis and but you’d suspect that Walsh would still have the choice at this point. It’s unlikely he’ll get off Kauto Star to ride Denman in the Cheltenham Gold Cup but anything could happen in the next few weeks in terms of injuries and Paul Nicholls has said that he’s in no rush to make a final decision. It’s not as if he’s going to have any great problems finding someone to take the ride.
