L'Ami out to post Gold claim

L’Ami is likely to use the Racing Post Chase at Sandown on February 25 as a stepping stone to the totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Francois Doumen’s seven-year-old is a general 25-1 chance for the blue riband after finishing second in the Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup and fourth behind Kicking King in the Stan James King George VI Chase.
