CANARDIER for trainer Dermot McLoughlin can follow up on a couple of solid runs at the Cheltenham and Aintree festivals finishing not far behind William Henry and Three Musketeers. The gelding will have to see off a selection of the Mullins battalions including Lac Kivu, Eight And Bob, Shanning and, should there be any market move, Stratum. Of the J P McManus runners, Ivanovich Gorbatov and Out Of The Loop deserve consideration.
