FINIAN'S FLYING AHEAD OF ASCOT TILT

Quote:
Finian's Rainbow is reported in excellent shape ahead of Saturday's 25th Anniversary Of The Victor Chandler Chase at Ascot.
Last month's Desert Orchid Chase winner, trained by Nicky Henderson, is the highest British-trained horse in the betting for the Queen Mother Champion Chase and will bid to enhance his Cheltenham claims on Saturday.
Finian's Rainbow's owner Michael Buckley is looking forward to seeing his charge in action this weekend and is confident he will prove a tough nut to crack.
"I hope he's got a good chance. Certainly if he's got any pretensions of running in the Champion Chase, he has to have a good chance of winning this," Buckley told At The Races.
