Take flight with Sabre

SABREFLIGHT can demonstrate her admirable staying abilities in the P & C Morris Express Catering Units Mares’ Only “National Hunt” Novices’ Hurdle at Sedgefield today.

Howard Johnson’s six-year-old mare suggested she was blessed with stamina in abundance when ploughing through soft ground at Wetherby just under three weeks ago, leaving her rivals toiling in her wake as she came home 11 lengths clear.

With equally testing conditions forecast, Sabreflight is fancied to relish the step up to an extended two miles and five furlongs and defy her inevitable penalty.
