Ringaroses to miss Cheltenham
Ringaroses will miss next week’s Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival after suffering an injury setback.
The seven-year-old was the 7-1 second favourite with the sponsor for the two-mile-five-furlong heat after finishing second at Doncaster last time.
However, trainer Henrietta Knight has ruled out a run at the Festival and Ringaroses now faces an indefinite spell on the sidelines.
She said: “Ringaroses has pulled a muscle in his hind-quarters and will not be running next week.
“We will have to wait and see (about Aintree) as muscles can take a while to come right again.”
The Tony Martin-trained Leg Spinner is the 6-1 favourite with Coral for the race.
