Flash De Touzaine
Exposed but useful on his day; latest of three chase wins came off same mark in veterans' chase on this card a year ago; ran well in Midlands National at Kilbeggan next time and stays this far; after a layoff, ran okay at Wexford last month but probably vulnerable to those with more upside.

From the connections
“I've always loved Flash De Touzaine but he's just a bit mentally fragile, although is going the right way. He jumped beautifully here. He was a bit novicey last season and we rode him more positively as we wanted to try something a bit different. Hopefully he is a National type of horse and you'd hope he'll take a step forward with more experience - it was only his fifth run over fences. He's a pure natural with an obstacle coming to him. Paul (Nicholls, previous trainer) had a few issues with him but mentally he's coming forward the whole time. I was very pleased they allowed me to take him back. I think he's one to look forward to - Liz Doyle, trainer.”
“Flash De Touzaine has always had ability and is showing it now, he's a stayer and he did that quite easily. I don't know whether we'll go for a novice hurdle or a handicap but he's a very nice horse for the future now that we have sorted his little mental fragilities out - Liz Doyle, trainer”
