Dundrum Wood won a point-to-point in November and L'Air Du Vent had every chance the same month when falling. But SON OF CAMAS is a half-brother to a Flat winner and may have more speed than that pair. Our Percy has a nice pedigree for jumping but it’s almost a year since Nikap finished second at Chepstow, though did run a remarkable race that day considering his rider lost his irons and was perched on a slipping saddle. Maria Francesca is a likely improver after making her debut in a higher grade.
