A huge array of young talent has been entered for the two novice features at the Cheltenham Festival, the Irish Independent Arkle Chase and the Royal & SunAlliance Chase.

The first three home in the Wragge & Co Finesse Juvenile Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham last Saturday – Moneytrain, Don Fernando and Saintsaire – are among 111 entered in the JCB Triumph Hurdle on March 13.

MINI SENSATION rose to the occasion to land a gamble in the Coral Welsh National at Chepstow yesterday.
