Cheltenham Festival: Dan Skelton fired up for strong challenge

Dan Skelton is preparing for the Cheltenham Festival. He has worked for Paul Nicholls for nine years and now owns his own stable. His brother Harry was recently crowned champion jockey. Skeltons team is significantly better than last year's. He is cautious about his horses going to the festival. Last year, Ireland were dominant at the event. The fallout of the last event made him more cautious. It is important to be cautious with the horses you take. There are novice hurdlers in the Supreme. They are expected to go there soon. Aintree and Punchestown are not.
