No Douvan in Tingle field


Douvan was the most noticeable absentee from the final declarations for Saturday's Betfair Tingle Creek.

Willie Mullin's brilliant Racing Post Arkle winner had been heavily backed for the Grade One prize after he featured among the five-day entries but the trainer has decided not to send him to the Esher course.

The field is completed by Vibrato Valtat from Paul Nicholls' yard.
