At the end of a week where they effectively duelled for the top trainer award at Cheltenham, the Elliott and Mullins teams lock horns much closer to home in the finale. It is the former who may come out best again with MINELLAFORDOLLARS, an impressive point-to-point winner previously under today's rider who should be up to the challenge on his first racecourse foray. Four Alfie represents the champion trainer and is of course greatly respected given the Closutton strike rate in these contests. The well-related Jetz ran well enough over timber at Naas last month to merit consideration for the in-form Harrington team now tackling a bumper, while Castle Clyde and Ballyhome are capable of improving on decent showings in this sphere already.
