Last Ran: 26th October 2008
Exotic Dancer returns on Sunday in his seasonal debut in the 2008 Grade 2 intercasino.co.uk Old Roan Limited Handicap Chase. Trained by Jonjo O'Neill he was third in this race last year behind Monets Garden and Kauto Star. O' Neil reports he is fit and ready this year and is hoping for a good run to start off the season with a bang.
Voy Por Ustedes was last seen in great form in April by winning the 2007 Queen Mother Champion Chase and did it in style by beating Master Minded after being the bridesmaid to him on two previous occasions. Trained by Alan King who says he has planned this race for him, he is very well and conections are hoping for a good run.
Monet's Garden will be looking to retain his title here after a blistering win over Kauto Star last year, however he didnt go on to back this up with any more wins in his campagn and seemed to struggle. It will be interesting to see if he can produce a back to back victory.
Paul Nichols has two entries, Nozic and Oslot while Ungaro and the Twiston-Davies trained Knowhere could add some extra spice to what looks like an already, red hot contest.
