It is hard to remember any previous races here that could have a bearing on Festival season but this event could easily unveil a future Grade 1 chase winner. French raider Master Dino adds a touch of spice given his hurdling exploits in France and a wide margin chase success at Auteuil. The question for him is his ability on less testing ground in a race where KNOCKANUSS is going to post some testing fractions. Gary Moore's charge has a stiff task under his penalty but his pace and slick jumping will provide a stern examination for his rivals. Slate House and Glenloe were better hurdlers than the selection, but both will need to be on top of their game for their initial run of the campaign,.
