We use Horizon-AGN, a hydrodynamical cosmological simulation, to explore the role of mergers in the evolution of massive (M > 10^10 MSun) galaxies around the epoch of peak cosmic star formation (1zR(4:1 3 are 'blue' (i.e. have significant associated star formation), the proportion of 'red' mergers increases rapidly at ztodays stellar mass was formed.
