McCoy is set to ride the Pipe-trained Lunar Crystal in the Summer Jumping Novices' Handicap Hurdle Championship final and all of these runners hold favourites chance.

McCoy also picks up a ride in the feature race of the day at the west country track, the Summer Jumping Novices' Handicap Chase final, in which he rides Kandy Four for Paul Nicholls and he has also picked up the mount on Mother Says in the concluding bumper.
