Doumen set to rock the Kasbah

KASBAH BLISS is the nap choice to strike a blow for France in the Ladbrokes’ World Hurdle at Cheltenham this afternoon.

He is in the care of that master trainer, Francois Doumen, who rates the seven-year-old even better than the great Baracouda, a dual winner of the contest.

Kasbah Bliss went close a year ago, only giving best to another mighty warrior, Inglis Drever, who was taking the race for a third time.
