Ivanovich Gorbatov and Apple's Jade have been declared for the AES Champion Four-Year-Old Hurdle at Punchestown on Saturday.

The former won the Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, but Apple's Jade dramatically reversed the form at Aintree for the Willie Mullins team.

Mullins is also responsible for Cap D'Aubois and Let's Dance in the two-mile Grade One.

Grade One Fairyhouse winner Jer's Girl (Gavin Cromell) has also been declared, but she is due to run in the Tattersalls Ireland Champion Novice Hurdle on Friday.

Tocororo (Gordon Elliott) completes the sextet.
