Trainer Willie Mullins has taken all four renewals of this event gaining a 1-2 last year at 50-1 and 66-1 and he fields four in an effort to retain his crown with second last year Concertista bidding to go one better with Dolcita looking the pick of his quartet. Bar the Mullins quartet Ireland have a strong team with Minella Melody holding a good few of her compatriots on various lines of form and she has a leading chance but it’s the Gordon Elliott-trained ARD ABHAINN who may well be the value in the race from an each-way perspective against the likely market leader.
- Ard Abhainn
- Minella Melody
