Olly Murphy’s fledgling stable is going great guns. Seven of his 12 runners to date over jumps have won and VARENE DE VAUZELLE should be another with the booking of top Irish amateur Jamie Codd a measure of stable confidence in the unlucky Southwell second. Rainbow Haze has rediscovered his best form and goes well here so looks the danger, though Three Colours Red has had a spin on the Flat since scoring over course and distance last month. Gask Ridge has hinted at ability but has stamina to prove over this longer trip.
