Formscan - The absence of Sir Gino leaves a big hole that may well be filled by MAJBOROUGH. Willie Mullins wasted little time in sending the five-year-old over fences after his Triumph success last year, with impressive victories at Fairyhouse and in the Irish Arkle. His jumping was slightly ponderous on the latter occasion but that should be ironed out, especially with some more experience under his belt. L'eau Du Sud brings an unbeaten record over fences to the table having been particularly strong over C&D in November. The seven-year-old has also looked more the finished article, displaying a tough attitude in the Henry VIII at Sandown on testing ground before beating the subsequent Pendil winner Rubaud at Warwick. Nicky Henderson is still represented by Jango Baie following his runner-up effort in the Scilly Isles and the fact he stays further isn't a negative to his chances.
