Alex Hales harbouring high hopes for Millers Bank at Newbury
Grade Two honours in novice chaser’s sights at Newbury.
Millers Bank bids to follow up his impressive chasing debut success when taking on three rivals in the Ladbrokes Committed To Safer Gambling Novices’ Chase at Newbury on Friday. The seven-year-old was a close-up third in the Grade One Aintree Hurdle on his final run last term and produced an 11-length success on his seasonal and chasing bow at Huntington last month. Having won four of his eight starts over hurdles, Alex Hales is hopeful the son of Passing Glance will make it two from two over fences in the two-and-a-half-mile Grade Two contest, where each of his three rivals were also successful on their respective seasonal debuts.? Wow
