Well supported Man With Van delivers in style for Crawford brothers
An eye-catcher behind Sizing Tennessee at Navan recently, Man With Ivan was strongly supported into 6/4 favouritism for the INH Stallion owners Maiden Hurdle and delivered in style, beating Der Kaiser by five and a half lengths despite wandering in the closing stages.
The Crawfords, one of the most astute operators in the north, were back in the winner’s enclosure after the bumper, following the emphatic, ten lengths victory of the Kings Theatre mare Twnetytwo’s Taken in the Barclay Communications Pro-Am Flat Race.
