Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 96

10/1

Once-raced in Irish points. Mid-field in bumpers and modest form over hurdles. Needs to improve for the switch to fences back from a break.

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 84

10/3

Regressive over hurdles but back on track switched to fences when second at Worcester. Claims if building on that.

Form: 5-86862

Le Mur^p1²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Harry Bannister| T: W Greatrex| OR: 66

40/1

Forecasts

Heritier (11/4), Kepy Blanc (10/3), Getaman (11/2), Captain Ivan (11/2), Razzo Italiano (6/1), Augharue (10/1), Gambie Tiep (16/1), Le Mur (40/1), Charlie Siringo (50/1), Evron (66/1)

CAPTAIN IVAN initially made a promising start over fences and has had excuses since, so is worth another chance back down in class and returned to a more suitable trip. The progressive Getaman is the obvious threat, with Heritier and Kepy Blanc also respected.
