Indefatigable on course for Cheltenham says Webber


The Cropredy Lawn handler has entered the six-year-old in the Grade 2 Dawn Run Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle at Prestbury Park.
Webber saw Indefatigable put up a great performance in defeat to Lady Buttons at Doncaster last month and feels she deserves to take her place at the Festival.

“She’s a very nice mare, very tough and was given plenty of time as a youngster so there is plenty of time for her to keep on improving.
“She came out of the race very well indeed. I’m very happy with her.”
Stablemate House Island looks as though he will go to Newbury rather than Warwick on Saturday.
