KARONACHO (6) made a promising debut at his last appearance four months ago, finishing 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 3200m in a flat race at Uttoxeter. Makes plenty of appeal. GRAND GARCON (5) is an unraced gelding. By Kapgarde and out of Urticaire. Profiles well and may pay to watch for a betting push. DOCTOR BLUE (1) tackles the jumps for the first time. Last raced when he finished fifth in a over 3100m at Ascot on December 20. Anticipating a bright start to the new phase of his career. TORMUND GIANTSBANE (2) was most recently at the races three months ago. Launched the last campaign with a win in a 3200m flat race at Worcester, getting home by one length. Expect another bright start to his prep.
