      Zaynar - owned by a syndicate headed by Victor Chandler. Triumph Hurdle winner in 2009 & 3rd in the Champion Hurdle the following year.

      Trained by Nicky Henderson for both of those efforts but currently on a tour of Devon.

      The horse was moved from Lambourn to Nick Williams' stable in April 2011 for a 'change of scenery' and last week he was transferred to David Pipe for another 'change of scenery'.
