Verdict

EL FABIOLO is the one to beat if recapturing the smart hurdle form he showed at Punchestown in December, with Maxxum a credible danger in first-time headgear, following a solid effort in defence of his Boyne Hurdle crown last time. Soir De Garde is unlikely to be the main Mullins' hope but remains unexposed.
