Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "L'Eau Du Sud looked like the one to watch of the Arkle outsiders, but we've seen enough interest in Jango Baie over the last few days for our traders to slash his odds, and then some.".
Although seemingly not an out and out two-miler, Jango Baie did win a Grade 1 hurdle race - the Formby, formerly the Tolworth - at Aintree in December 2023 over 2m½f.
And was beaten a short head at Grade 1 level by Handstands when last seen in the 2m4f Scilly Isles at Sandown earlier this month.
A sign of how much Henderson loves Jango Baie is that he gave him his chasing debut at Cheltenham.
First month membership £1, then £3 per month unless you cancel at least 7 days before your next billing date.
