With the benefit of his first run since the 2014 Cheltenham Festival under his belt, we can expect much more from RATHVINDEN today. Willie Mullins' charge clearly has plenty of talent, as his 5L beating by the imperious Faugheen in that race at the Festival shows, and he was more than entitled to need the run when pulling up at Navan in December. If coming on for that, he should be the one to beat ahead of Roconga, who should enjoy the step up in trip, and Chesterfieldavenue, who also recently returned from a long absence.
