Doran's Pride was killed at the 2003 Cheltenham Festival. It had to be put down following breaking a leg in the Christie's Foxhunter Chase.

I did have a feeling that was what had happened but was not 100% sure. I knew it had not raced this season and it is such a shame, he was a good servant to his connections over the years.

For what it's worth my fancies are Jurancon II ridden by A P McCoy, but not much value at 9/1 or 10/1.

Shardam around 16/1 with most bookies.

Whats Up Boys 25/1 if you want a bit more value.

Best of luck!
