Proactif
6/1
Willie Mullins saddles 8, headed by Cheltenham Festival winners APOLON DE CHARNIE and Saratoga, with the Triumph Hurdle hero taken to follow up. His old rival Proactif bounced back from his Cheltenham defeat with a gutsy success at Fairyhouse and is unlikely to be far away.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Of those forecasted with a better chance, Proactif could be most vulnerable in a race in which competition for the lead looks to be fierce: There is a chance of a pace burnout early, and Matin Midi Et Soir is one who may benefit from being produced later.
