Sprinter Sacre, Hello Bud and Flemenstar provided racing highlights last week and here Tom Segal reflects on the meetings at Sandown and Punchestown and selects a few horses to follow :
This weekend the jumps racing programme takes us back to Cheltenham with the two day International Meeting on Friday 14th and Saturday 15th of December. The December Gold Cup, StanJames International Hurdle , Relkeel Hurdle and Albert Bartlett all feature on a quality Saturday card. Elsewhere on Saturday Lingfield hope to run the Grade 2 RSA Novices Chase and Doncaster have the Grade 2 Summit Juvenile Hurdle.
Prior to that we have Peterborough Chase Day at Huntington on Thursday 13th December 2012.
Sunday’s Grade 1 Navan Novice Hurdle over 2m4f should also be informative with Don Cossack and Un atout among the entries.
