Verdict

Injury (soreness on a splint) has cruelly denied the brilliant defending champion Altior the opportunity to seek a hat-trick of wins in the Grade 1 Queen Mother Champion Chase, which opens the door for the ultra-progressive Dublin Chase winner Chacun Pour Soi and the notoriously hardy DEFI DU SEUIL. The former was flawless when taking the scalp of his illustrious Ryanair Chase bound stablemate Min at Leopardstown, but the JP McManus-owned runner adores Cheltenham (6-8) and that serves to tip the scales narrowly in his favour.
