FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Willie Mullins is again the man to side with here - his three representatives the stand out names. Which of the trio to row in with is the big question though. Many are likely to favour Min after his superb performance in the Melling Chase at Aintree, however UN DE SCEAUX is the one I'll side with. The brilliant eleven-year-old is really at his best over two miles, and won this contest last year, with Min back in fourth. He put it up to Altior in the Tingle Creek at Sandown in December, and performed with credit in the Ryanair at Cheltenham on his latest start. Back to two miles now, and at a venue where he has an excellent record, it's hard to see him out of the frame. The aforementioned Min could only manage a disappointing fifth in the Queen Mother, and perhaps he is just not as effect over the minimum trip. Great Field has plenty of ability, but it's difficult to fancy any horse coming off the back of two falls. He did win over the course and distance at the Festival in 2017, and it would come as little surprise if he managed to push the aforementioned duo all the way. Castlegrace Paddy was a very impressive winner of the Hilly Way at Cork in December. He has been ultimately disappointing since, but it'll be interesting to see how he fares in a first time tongue-strap. Hell's Kitchen, who was a good fourth in the Queen Mother, and Ordinary World complete the line-up.
