It has to taken on trust that Tony McCoy has chosen the right one out of Martin Pipe's pair in Our Vic, but all reports have suggested that this former Irish pointer is going to be a much better chaser than he is over hurdles. Therefore, the son of Old Vic is selected over his stablemate, Janus Du Cochet, who is shaping up well in this sphere, and French raider Look Collonges, who has a little to prove after a well below par run at Warwick last time he was seen in action. Whereas it would take a leap of faith to step into the unknown with Starshipenterprise on what he has shown to date. This brings us back to chasing debutante Our Vic, who only lost his unbeaten status over hurdles to a very well handicapped Overstrand in a valuable Listed race at Sandown at the start of last month. The six-year-old adds another string to the bow of owner David Johnson's ever increasing string of horses and he is taken to have too much toe for his rivals this afternoon.
