Verdict

GALOPIN DES CHAMPS had presumably taken too much out of himself in the Gold Cup when second to Fastorslow in this 12 months ago but he's had an extra week to recover from his Cheltenham heroics this time around, so he's fancied to reverse the placings with his old rival. Corach Rambler got no further than the first in the Grand National 18 days ago but was a superb third in the Gold Cup prior to that and can place in this, too.

  1. GALOPIN DES CHAMPS (FR)
  2. FASTORSLOW (FR)
  3. CORACH RAMBLER (IRE)
