Verdict

Smart hurdler KITZBUHEL can make a winning start over fences for Willie Mullins, who has won the last 2 runnings of this with Gaelic Warrior and Ballyburn. The forecast spot might be filled by Shuffle The Deck, who quickly developed into a useful hurdler last season and a point background provides hope that he can do at least as well over fences. The selection's stablemate Kaid d'Authie is next on the list.

  1. KITZBUHEL (FR)
  2. SHUFFLE THE DECK (IRE)
  3. KAID D'AUTHIE (FR)
