There is strong Irish representation in all of the races at Perth this afternoon.
Gordon Elliott sends eight horse across the Irish Sea and has some notable chances.
His Gers Gigi is odds-on favourite for the opening novices' hurdle (1.55pm) after a maiden hurdle success in Sligo last month.
Leading Lion, who was a decisive winner at Bellewstown in August, is also market leader for the Stellantis At Auto Services Perth Ltd. Handicap Hurdle over an extended two-miles. General Hubble has attracted support for Division 2 of the Practical Car And Van Rental At Asp.Scot Handicap Hurdle. He was last seen finishing placed in a staying handicap-chase at Killarney.
Noel Kelly and Stuart Crawford also have runners at the Scottish track.
