Albert Bartlett the target for Latest Exhibition
Trainer Paul Nolan says Latest Exhibition will contest the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham.
Nolan’s charge also has the option of the 2m 5f Neptune Novices’ Hurdle but the trainer feels Latest Exhibition will excel in the three-mile Albert Bartlett. ‘Looking at the way he races, I think three miles will be the making of him,’ said Nolan. ‘It’s not that we are trying to avoid anyone – we want to run him over the trip we think he’ll be best at. ‘He’s run over two, two and a half miles and two-six – and another step up wouldn’t inconvenience him. It would be a plus, rather than a minus.’
