Joseph O'Brien's hurdles debutant DLAURO features in the betting for all of the Cheltenham novice hurdle races and although it is way too early to be thinking about such races he can further enhance his reputation by remaining unbeaten here to add to his hugely impressive point and bumper successes. Willie Mullins runs three and all of them merit respect. His apparent first string is Paul Townend's mount Fils Spirituel and the master of Closutton's unparalleled record with French recruits means he is then most feared. Stablemate Zenon may also play a big part given his smart Flat form in 2017 and respectable hurdles bow.
