Sprinter set for Cue Card clash

Exciting novices Sprinter Sacre and Cue Card are the star names among eight entries for the Betfair Super Saturday Chase at Newbury.

Sprinter Sacre catapulted himself to the head of the betting for the Arkle Trophy at next month’s Cheltenham Festival with a jaw-dropping victory over Peddlers Cross at Kempton over Christmas.

He is now set to step outside novice company for the race better known as the Game Spirit Chase.
