Paul Nicholls believes Captain Teague has a big chance on Friday

Just the one runner for Paul Nicholls at Chetlenham on Friday but he has a big chance of landing another top prize with his very talented hurdler Captain Teague...


15:30 - Captain Teague

He's a class act and this race has been the plan since he made a pleasing winning debut over hurdles last month in the Grade 2 Persian War at Chepstow where he jumped well, cruised to the front before the second last and readily drew clear of some useful types.

Captain Teague is a gorgeous, big horse and that was his first gallop on grass this season so he will have learned plenty because he was still a bit green. He had a nice school out on the grass earlier this week and goes to Cheltenham with a big chance.
