Paul Nicholls Exclusive: AP to ride Fistral on Saturday

No, the Sports Personality of the Year is not heading down to Newquay to ride the waves. Instead, he'll be bidding to win the big race at Kempton Park for Paul...

We run Fistral Beach in the Racing Post Chase on Saturday - and I can announce here first that AP takes the ride.

Obviously, a breathing operation looks to have worked with Fistral, as he won really well at Wincanton on his reappearance.

There is a slight doubt in my mind about him staying 3m, so let's hope the rain stays away this week. But good to soft ground will be fine.
