Badger Chase Day
The latest National Hunt season is really beginning to find its stride now and we have a Saturday jam-packed with quality fare to look forward to this week. The pick of the cards for us comes at Wincanton. The preceding Elite Hurdle may be the classiest contest on the card, but it is this excellent handicap chase which is likely to prove the big betting heat of the day.
