The Willie Mullins-trained MINELLA BEAU can emulate 2014 winner Vics Canvas and Logical Song, successful here 12-months ago by landing the spoils here on handicap chase debut with jockey Ruby Walsh in the plate. The King's Theatre gelding can see off the attentions of Michael Hourigans, The Gatechecker, potential improver, Justmemyselfandi and Major Destination from the in form Noel Meade yard who achieved a treble at Down Royal on Saturday.
