Two of the rising stars of the British training ranks, Kerry Lee and Ben Pauling, are bidding to saddle their first Punchestown Festival winners next week. Lee, whose father Richard enjoyed success at the Punchestown Festival as a trainer, will saddle Top Gamble - a Grade 2 Fairyhouse winner last time out - in Tuesdays Grade 1 BoyleSports Champion Chase.Top Gamble has come out of Fairyhouse very well - hes bouncing and is in great form at home, said Kerry Lee. You always hope that they will improve, although youre never confident, and he has certainly earned a place to have a crack at the BoyleSports Champion Chase after a brilliant performance at Fairyhouse. Richard Johnson holds him in high regard and as long as the ground is on the easy side, hes going there in fine form.Kylemore Lough gave Lee a first Grade 1 victory in the Ryanair Gold Cup at Fairyhouse on March 27 and hes set to bid for another race backed by the same sponsor - the Grade 1 Ryanair Novice Chase at Punchestown next Thursday, April 28.Kylemore Lough has done really well, winning five chases this season and hes been very impressive. When he started off in October, I had a lot of hope for him but you can never be too keen at that time of year. But saying that, hes a horse Ive always thought a lot of, added Lee.Hes been in very good form - he really handled the journey over and the race in Ireland well and has come out of it very well. I couldnt be happier with him and hes very similar to Top Gamble regarding ground requirements.Barters Hill was unbeaten in his seven previous starts before finishing fourth in the Albert Bartlett Novices Hurdle at Cheltenham and he has been kept back by trainer Ben Pauling for the Punchestown Festival.The six-year-old is entered in both the 2m 4f Grade 1 Tattersalls Ireland Novice Hurdle next Friday, April 29, and the 3m Grade 1 Irish Daily Mirror Novice Hurdle on Wednesday, April 27.I havent decided which race hell run in yet and it will depend on the ground. Im quite tempted to go for the shorter race but well see, said Pauling.I didnt know if Barters Hill would run again after Cheltenham but hes in such good form I thought we probably would go to Punchestown.It was never the idea to go to Aintree after Cheltenham as unfortunately he wasnt spot on at Cheltenham. It was well publicised that he wasnt quite right three days before Cheltenham and he came back a bit stiff so he did well to run as well as he did. I definitely think hes a bit better than the fourth at Cheltenham.It looks like hes come back to his best and I couldnt be happier with him. Hell do a couple of pieces of work and a schooling session before Punchestown and hell only go if hes absolutely spot on as Im not going to risk him.

Chad Billingsley, still recovering from right elbow surgery, also was put on the DL. Beckett has a bruised thumb and Kemp is rehabbing from ankle surgery. The moves are retroactive to March 19, so all three players are ineligible to return until April 3. That means theyll miss at least a three-game series in San Diego from March 30 to April 2. Left fielder Carl Crawford also was inactive. He is on paternity leave. Arizona optioned pitchers Charles Brewer and Zeke Spruill to the minors. The Dodgers and Diamondbbacks open the Major League Baseball season Saturday (4 a.ddddddddddddm. EDT) at Sydney Cricket Ground. In addition, the Dodgers optioned backup catcher Tim Federowicz and reassigned outfielder Joc Pederson, pitcher Zach Lee and infielder Miguel Rojas to the minors. The moves left the Dodgers payroll -- including cash transactions in trades -- at a record $239.8 million for 34 players. But that probably wont be their opening day payroll, which will be calculated as of the March 30 game against San Diego, when all teams have to be down to 25 active players. The Diamondbacks were at $112.7 million for 30 players. Both teams came to Australia with 30 players for the two-game series, which ends Sunday. Beckett, Kemp and Billingsley did not make the trip.
