Her Indoors picks up Grade Three honours at Cheltenham
King filly back to winning ways following Festival run.
Form from the Festival played its part as Her Indoors came out on top in the NAF Fillies’ Juvenile Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham. According to trainer Alan King, the 6-1 shot found the hustle and bustle of the Fred Winter (Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle) a shade intimidating, and was happier in this smaller field. Under Adrian Heskin she seized command from Scholastic on the approach to the final flight, staying on the better to score by three and a half lengths. “It was a good race to target,” said King of the Grade Three contest. “I thought the smaller field would certainly help her, and with her stamina she would power up the hill.🎵 “I could be so good for you.”
