T: W P Mullins

Beaten twice by Brighterdaysahead this season, flopping badly on the second occasion, and was gifted a third Irish Champion Hurdle last month as main rival Lossiemouth fell; won a substandard edition of this race last year and was no match for highly impressive Constitution Hill 12 months earlier; dependable in the main and has a voluminous Grade 1 tally but a second Champion Hurdle win looks far from certain; wears first-time headgear.

The dominant 2m hurdler in recent seasons and attempting to win this for the third year running; beaten at odds-on both starts this term however, reportedly never travelling here at Christmas but Paul Townend remains loyal and no surprise if he bounced back.
