After failing to take to fences last season, Zyon won twice over hurdles at Kempton in the first half of the year. Getalead won at Newton Abbot on Monday but wouldn’t have done so had the favourite and runner-up Gaulois not blown the start so he may struggle under his penalty. Glimpse Of Gala won three times last season and may have more to offer but the four-year-old COLDSTREAM is getting plenty of weight and has even more scope.
