Verdict

Willie Mullins and Ruby Walsh have took this Grade 1 contest in each of the past three years, so it's to be expected that Invitation Only will head the market. His form stands up to scrutiny, and he should have the measure of Snow Falcon on the Flogas evidence (Leopardstown). However, he's unlikely have it all his own way up front, with the blossoming mare Shattered Love and the returning; hopefully clean winded Finian's Oscar also representing potential pace angles. Scilly Isles Novices' Chase winner TERREFORT is another likely to be prominent; he's unbeaten in two starts for Nicky Henderson and the selection has the profile of a rapidly improving horse.
