Verdict

Last year's winner FACT TO FILE added another Grade 1 around 2½m in the Ryanair at Cheltenham in March and can confirm he's still the dominant force over this trip and provide Willie Mullins with a tenth success in this since 2013. Stablemate Gaelic Warrior can follow him home ahead of 2023 winner Fastorslow.
