Verdict

Quite an interesting race despite the smallish field. Willie Mullins had eight entered at the five-day stage, so the fact that he relies on FAIS TON CHEMIN is significant, and he gets the nod over Favori de Champdou, who appears the pick of three from the in-form Gordon Elliott operation. Gabynako was an expensive purchase, and shaped well when second in a point in November, so can't be ignored.
  1. Fais Ton Chemin
  2. Favori De Champdou
  3. Gabynako
