Ruby Walsh: Min looks good, but Altior to prove a tougher test

Ruby Walsh admits “tougher test lie ahead” for Min, but was adamant he could not have been any more impressive at Leopardstown over Christmas.

Runner-up in the Supreme Novices Hurdle in March, he is two from two over fences, having already registered a Grade One win in the Racing Post Novice Chase on December 26.

However, the horse who beat him at Cheltenham, Nicky Henderson’s Altior, is also being aimed at the Arkle Trophy at the Festival in March.
