PreviewsGalvin has undoubtedly improved since winning last year's National Hunt Chase but he would ideally want some rain to bring his stamina into play, while A Plus Tard was a gallant second in this 12 months ago and has done little wrong since, hosing up at Haydock before just finding Galvin too good in a tactically-run Savills Chase at Leopardstown. He looks sure to give another good account, but just like last year, stablemate MINELLA INDO could have his measure. The reigning champion loves it here, winning twice and being collared late on in the 2020 RSA from three Festival visits, and he looks to be coming to the boil at just the right time judged on his second in the Irish Gold Cup last month. He stays but isn't short of speed either, jumps, travels and any type of scenario that may occur shouldn't bother him. Chantry House seems to be coming here slightly under the radar, but he also likes the track and the vibes have been more positive about him recently.

Can go one better than last year’s second in this.
