Colebrooke has been declared for the Grade 2 Finesse Hurdle in Cheltenham tomorrow. There are just the six runners, but it looks a lot more about quality than quantity!Noel Fehily rides, and 2m 1f around the stiff Cheltenham track should suit. I can see him staying on well up the hill! Colebrooke has been the model of consistancy since joining the yard, and has kept on improving. His form is rock solid, and if you think, like me, that his 2 worst performances (Fontwell 2nd time and Bangor) were due to heavy ground, then he has a bit of a squeek of unsaddling at the top end of the paddock! His owners, TMT Grand have had a great time with this tough little chap, and hopefully tomorrow will tell us where we should be aiming him in March! Good luck everyone!
