Mullins pleased with Cup pair

Tote Cheltenham Gold Cup hopes Florida Pearl and Alexander Banquet continue to please connections as trainer Willie Mullins puts the finishing touches to their preparations. "Florida Pearl and Alexander Banquet had a nice workout.... and I'm delighted with the pair," Mullins enthused. "They are both in good order. The two of them went very well - they did a nice bit of work."

Mullins also confirmed Assessed on course for Tuesday's Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy. "Assessed will take his chance in the Arkle," Mullins added. "The horse worked nicely and scoped clear afterwards."
