Willie Mullins holds a strong hand and Paul Townend will have had difficulty in choosing between Min and YORKHILL. The former hardly impressed against Simply Ned here over Christmas, but he did too much in the first half of the race and conditions may have not been soft enough. However, he left the impression he might be ready for a longer trip and Townend may have taken the right option with the selection. His last run can be ignored and this contest plays to his speed and preference for left-handed circuits. Champion Chaser Special Tiara would prefer better ground, but Ordinary World could make the frame at a big price once again.
