Cue Card heads straight to Cheltenham

Cue Card is likely to head straight to the Cheltenham Festival without another run after confirming he is in the big league with a fine performance yesterday.

The lightly-raced four-year-old, trained by Colin Tizzard, found only Supreme Novices’ Hurdle winner Menorah too good in the StanJames.com International Hurdle at the Prestbury Park track.
