Monger strongly fancied to follow up

MONGER LANE has a fine chance of completing a course and distance double at Leicester by taking the Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry Handicap Chase.

Returning from a six-month absence when beating only daylight home over hurdles in November, she reverted to fences five weeks ago and displayed wonderful determination to overcome a previous winner by just over a length.

With the form of that race having worked out exceptionally well the third, fourth, seventh, eighth, and even 10th winning next time out it seems fair to assume that Monger Lane will run another big race.
