Fastorslow repeated his victory of last year as he once again got the better of Galopin Des Champs in the Ladbrokes Punchestown Gold Cup.
Martin Brassil’s charge was a shock 20-1 scorer from the Cheltenham Gold Cup hero 12 months ago, but he went off much shorter odds at 7-2 this time, with Galopin Des Champs 1-2 favourite.
Slevin said: "He's an absolute monster! He's some horse and is by far the best horse I've ever ridden. He was actually keen for the first mile and I was very worried about that.
"He had a bit of a go at the first down the back and came out of my hands, but he's an absolute machine. It was a long way home (from Cheltenham) but, at the end of the day, it is a horse race and you have to move on. There's a lot of people in worse situations."
