Formscan - It will be interesting to see how Jonbon fares with Harry Cobden in the saddle for the first time as he bids to follow up last year's success. That said, the task at hand is a lot tougher with his Tingle Creek conqueror IL ETAIT TEMPS making the trip over from Ireland. Willie Mullins bids for a fourth win in the contest after saddling Un De Sceaux to three consecutive victories and it is difficult to see Jonbon finding nine lengths and more to reverse the form. Gidleigh Park is interesting dropping back in trip but has plenty to find on figures, while the much-improved Thistle Ask will ensure there are no hiding places on the front end.
