GALOPIN DES CHAMPS took this event in great style 12 months ago en route to Cheltenham Gold Cup glory and is confidently expected to repeat the feat and put behind him his Punchestown Gold Cup blip when overturned by Fastorslow. Martin Brassil's upwardly-mobile chaser still rates the chief threat to Willie Mullins' top-notcher though, ahead of Blue Lord and Appreciate It.
