The New Lion's first run in the silks of his new owner JP McManus is likely to be at the Cheltenham Festival in March, with Dan and Harry Skelton "delighted" he is staying in their Warwickshire yard.
The six-year-old is unbeaten in a bumper and three hurdles starts, most recently landing the Grade One Challow Novices' Hurdle at Newbury in the manner of a very talented performer.
