The Elliott and Mullins camps are braced for a thrilling climax to the jumps season and they fire six of the seven at this prize. It is the latter who appears to be holding the trump cards this time, with LET'S DANCE a confident selection to continue her winning ways. Ruby Walsh admitted his positon was not ideal at Cheltenham but he remained calm and the mare made light work of that field. This trip holds no fears and she is the one the one they all have to beat. Airlie Beach was expected to give her a race last time but the market vibes were vindicated as she ran poorly and it could be that Augusta Kate is next best of the Closutton quartet, if the Albert Bartlett run hasn't left a mark. The raiding Colin's Sister merits plenty respect having missed Cheltenham while Gigginstown duo Barra and Shattered Love look held.
