Frost teaming up with French champion trainer at Cheltenham

Bryony Frost is back at the scene of one of her finest hours on Saturday, as she heads to Cheltenham to assist newly-crowned French champion jumps’ trainer Mickael Seror.
The 30-year-old famously landed Ryanair Chase success aboard her beloved Frodon at the Cheltenham Festival in 2019, but has been a rare sight at Prestbury Park since relocating to France to become retained rider for leading owners Simon Munir and Isaac Souede’s French string in 2024.
Frost has also enjoyed the support of Seror on the continent, with the Gallic handler delighted to call upon some local knowledge ahead of saddling his first runners at the home of British jumps racing.
Frost will ride Kaline Des Boullat in the Timeform Novices’ Handicap Chase and Miss Des Boullats in the JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle.
Seror told the Press Association: “Bryony knows both horses and she has won on board both of them and she knows the track well, obviously, so it’s great to have her ride.
“It’s very exciting to come to Cheltenham, I can’t hide my joy and I’m jumping around. I’ve always wanted to have runners at Cheltenham and it will be a dream come true.”
As well as ending the stranglehold Guillaume Macaire and Francois Nicolle had on the French trainers’ championship, Seror helped Frost pick up the female Golden Whip Championship for most winners by a female rider in 2025.
Among those winners are both of her intended mounts this weekend.
Seror added: “I’m happy Kaline Des Boullat is a novice and that is why she is coming to England. She has a lot of experience and she has a good handicap rating.
“For Miss Des Boullats, I’m very happy to find this race for her, but I do not think she will be 100 per cent fit right now.”
Frost will also ride Hurricane Bay for old ally Lucy Wadham in the Betfair Exchange Handicap Chase on the Cheltenham Festival Trials day card, a horse she has partnered 10 times in the past.
