Nicholls & Harry Ber up well in Liverpool

HARRY Cobden produced another front-running masterclass as Kalif Du Berlais dominated the Maghull Novices' Chase and put the cap on a fine weekend in Liverpool for the Paul Nicholls team.

- 

Cobden had struck in the festival's three-mile novice Grade One aboard Caldwell Potter on Friday and he and Nicholls picked up their second top-level prize of the week in the race after the National.

As with Caldwell Potter, Cobden was donning the colours of the late John Hales and never missed a beat aboard his mount as the five-year-old bounced back to his best on a sound surface and down in trip.
