Banbridge brilliant winner of the Arkle Trial at Cheltenham

Banbridge won the race at the Festival. Tommy's Oscar didn't do well. J J Slevin rode Banbridge. It was only his second run over fences. O'Brien will decide on the trip now. He entered the event because the ground was nice. The last option was over 2.5 miles. Ronnie Bartlett decided on this. He had an option in Cork last weekend. However, the heavy ground in this place was better. This is the easier race. There is a lot of water to go under the bridge before March. For more information, visit jbrian.com.uk.
