Verdict

Having been Willie Mullins' first runner in the Qatar Racing silks when winning a Kilbeggan bumper, SOLINDIAN now make his hurdles bow having swapped Closutton for Gordon Elliott's yard. The change shouldn't disguise his promise, and another winning start for a powerful trainer will be no surprise. Koroleva on the other hand has become frustrating for the Mullins team, though might find this longer trip suits. He's No Molly was in a tough maiden at Punchestown in December when last sighted and is worth a betting check here.
  1. Solindian
