Formscan - Narrowly beaten in this contest in 2024, DINOBLUE produced a dominant display to land this prize last year. Tough and consistent, Willie Mullins' talented nine-year-old will take all the beating once again, having warmed up nicely for this with a Listed success at Naas last month. She's preferred to stable companion Spindleberry, who faced a tough assignment in the Irish Gold Cup last time, having shown excellent progress over fences in 2025. Panic Attack is on the upgrade and could give selection plenty to think about. Dan Skelton's charge landed the Paddy Power here prior to winning the Coral Gold Cup at Newbury, while the dual Listed winner Diva Luna also arrives in fine form, although she faces a much tougher assignment on this occasion.
