Despite Constitution Hill's absence, this prize still looks destined for the Nicky Henderson yard with SIR GINO taken to maintain his unbeaten record. Indeed, he could be something of a star himself judged on his exploits last term, which included an impressive performance in the Anniversary Hurdle at Aintree. Irish-raider Mystical Power, also a Grade 1 winner at the Grand National meeting, will ensure that this is a proper test for Sir Gino, while the mare Take No Chances makes each-way appeal.
