Re: Horse Racing
LONG RUN HAS NATIONAL PLAN B
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Thu
Quote:
Long Run has the John Smith's Grand National as a possible back-up plan if he is unable to contest the Gold Cup next March.
The Nicky Henderson-trained seven-year-old is due to reappear in the Betfair Chase at Haydock next month, after which all roads will again lead to the Cheltenham Festival. He won the Gold Cup two seasons ago but could only finish third to Synchronised in March.
Should he suffer a setback, however, connections could instead point Long Run towards Aintree.
