Verdict

FAUGHEEN can make a winning return from a lengthy absence by registering an eighth success at the highest level in this 2m contest. Willie Mullins has taken the last six renewals of this contest and the 2015 Champion Hurdle winner can see off the youngster Campeador, who was a winner here last time out while the selections stablemate Vroum Vroum Mag, herself a classy hurdler can take third.
