Wendigo puts in a nice round at Ayr under Gavin Sheehan for Jamie Snowden on his final run before the Cheltenham Festival, where a clash with Final Demand awaits in the Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase. Read less

Charme De Faust, a four-year-old filly by Goliath Du Berlais, shows impressive late speed in testing conditions at Thurles and looks a bright prospect for champion trainer Willie Mullins and long-times allies Rich and Susannah Ricci. Read less

Jamie Snowden’s Wendigo came through his Cheltenham Festival preparations at Ayr with flying colours, with his trainer describing the race as “perfect”. Last seen finishing strongly into third in the Grade One Kauto Star Novices’ Chase at Kempton over Christmas, he was taking a big drop in class for the Join Coral ‘Bet £10 Get £50’ ‘Chasing Excellence’ Novices’ Chase. Only two were declared to take him on, Donald McCain’s Maximilian, a Grade Two winner over hurdles in January 2023, and Nick Alexander’s Donny Boy. Maximilian set out in front under Brian Hughes and while Donny Boy briefly led, Gavin Sheehan did not waste time in sending Wendigo on. Jumping with aplomb, the seven-year-old was soon a long way clear and the 1-5 favourite came home 22 lengths to the good. Wendigo is a general 10-1 chance for the Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase at Cheltenham. “You always hope it is straightforward when they are so short in the betting and thankfully it was,” said Snowden. “It’s a good sign when after the last he picked up immediately, suggesting there was plenty left, it was a perfect race really. “It’s a long gap between Kempton and Cheltenham so it was nice to get a run into him. “We went right-handed at Christmas, but we always had a sneaky suspicion he was better left-handed and he did jump out to his left at Kempton. All the graded races between now and then like the Scilly Isles, the Reynoldstown and Pendil are right-handed so we had to go up to Ayr. “He jumped beautifully today and I think he’s the best of the British in the Brown Advisory, but he’s not had four runs over fences which qualifies him for the handicaps. Our main aim is the Brown Advisory, but we do have options. “We can watch the Irish this weekend now.” Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ http://y2u.be/Kfl2CXtG6xA Greatest Hits!

Willie Mullins’ Charme De Faust made a successful Irish debut in the Thurles Maiden Hurdle. Sent off the 5-6 favourite, the Rich Ricci-owned filly briefly looked as if she might have a race on her hands turning in but came home a powerful nine lengths clear. She was cut to 14-1 from 25s for the Triumph Hurdle by Paddy Power. Winning rider Paul Townend said: “She handled the ground well, will improve from it as she had a couple of blows and she jumped brilliantly. I was able to use her French experience and I think there is plenty of improvement in her. “I liked how she did it and she has developing to do yet, to fill into her frame. I think she’ll have a nice future and when she strengthens up, she’ll be a fine mare.” Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ http://y2u.be/Kfl2CXtG6xA Greatest Hits!

Gordon Elliott’s El Cairos survived a blunder at the final flight in his Thurles prep run to ensure he goes to the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham with a victory under his belt. Promoted to the head of the betting for the Festival opener when on the verge of creating a huge impression on his hurdling debut at Leopardstown before falling at the last, he almost succumbed again. Having lost his position as favourite to Nicky Henderson’s Old Park Star, El Cairos faced only one serious market marvel as he was sent off the 1-5 favourite for the ThurlesRaces.ie Maiden Hurdle and all was going to plan before he dived at the last. Jack Kennedy was soon back on the bridle, however, going on to account for Roc Dino, beaten by Mighty Park last time out, by three lengths. “It is job done and he never came out of second gear. Jack said it was his fault at the last as he said he should have either taken him back or asked him, but I loved the way he came back on the bridle straight away and you’d have to be impressed by that,” said Elliott. “We came here looking for good ground so I was nervous, but it was either come here or to Navan or Punchestown next week, which was getting too close to Cheltenham. “I don’t think he could have done any more and he is very fast. Jack said the boot he has is unbelievable. He’ll learn plenty from today and even racing in a big field will do him no harm. He’ll go straight to Cheltenham and he’ll be way better on better ground.” Coral left El Cairos unchanged at 5-1 for the Supreme but Paddy Power pushed him out to 11-2 from 9-2. #horseracing #horses #cheltenhamfestival Must-see compilations and best bits ➡️ http://y2u.be/Kfl2CXtG6xA Greatest Hits!
