Seebald stars in Pipe three-timer

Martin Pipe gained another significant success to stretch his lead in the trainers’ championship when Seebald landed the Faucetts For Mira Showers Silver Trophy at Cheltenham today.

Since his triumph with Tiutchev at Aintree, Pipe has gradually turned the screw on his big rival Paul Nicholls and this half-length success for Seebald over Tikram will be seen as a major step towards a 14th title for the reigning champion.
