My Drogo stars in Premier prize at Kelso
Dan Skelton’s runner tackles Grade Two test.
My Drogo heads a high-class field for the bet365 Premier Novices’ Hurdle at Kelso. The GBP 40,000 contest forms part of a quality card in the Borders, with the huge prize-money on offer in the three feature events in particular tempting the likes of Dan Skelton and Paul Nicholls to send runners on the long journey north. My Drogo must concede weight to each of his six rivals, having already won at Grade Two level on his latest outing in the Sky Bet Supreme Trial at Ascot in December. Nevertheless, Skelton is anticipating a big run in Saturday’s two-and-a-quarter-mile contest.My Drogo seals the @SkyBet Supreme Trial Novices Hurdle Race ✔️
