DAN and Harry Skelton can land the Best Odds Guaranteed Still At BetVictor Maiden Hurdle with Kadastral at Newbury.

The five-year-old won the Goffs Hundred Grand Bumper here in the spring and there was plenty of encouragement to be taken from his hurdling bow at Chepstow in early November.

Although no match for the high-class Sober Glory in Monmouth-shire, Kadastral was 14 lengths clear of the remainder and he has every chance of going one better.

Lucky Place is given a second chance to prove his worth over fences in the Hooorrrraaaayyyy It’s Christmas Queens Arms ‘Chasing Excellence’ Beginners’ Chase.
