Last Ran: 4th November 2008
Trainer Paul Nichols sends Twist Magic to post in the 2008 Grade two William Hill Gold Cup Chase on Tuesday. Currently favourite, this horse had a fantastic season last year delivering two Grade 1 wins over two miles in the Tingle Creek Chase and the Kerrygold Champion Chase. Connections are expecting him come back even better this season, but he wont be wanting very testing ground.
Nichols also has Natal, runner up to Twist Magic in the Kerrygold Champion Chase last time out in April.
Other interesting entries include, from the Alan King stable Howle Hill who is a real tough cookie and has a way of recovering from mistakes.
