Verdict

DA CAPO GLORY showed at the Cheltenham Festival that he retains a great deal of his useful ability reverted to hurdling and, with fewer question marks than his rivals, is taken to come out on top back over fences. Butch Cassidy boasts the best chasing form but bled last time, while the less than straightforward Sandor Clegane is another obvious danger if on a going day.

  1. DA CAPO GLORY (IRE)
  2. BUTCH CASSIDY (IRE)
  3. SANDOR CLEGANE (IRE)
