Nicky Henderson: 'No-one's ducking and diving

Shishkin, Greaneteen and Edwardstone are going to race in the Grade 1 Betfair Tingle Creek at Sandown on Saturday. Nicky Henderson is excited about the prospect of the race. Gordon Elliott suggested that trainers should be more risk-averse when it comes to pitching their best horses into battle. Paul Nicholls, who trains Greansh, called it a "home game" for his horse. The ground at the chase course at SandOWN is good to soft. The weather is cool and dry. It is forecast to be cool in run up to the weekend. Shishk has not raced since his flop in Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham Festival.

Tingle Creek: 'If he's back to his best Shishkin's the one to beat'

The aura of invincibility that surrounded Shishkin prior to his Champion Chase flop has evaporated for the time being. With Energumene 2-1 favourite - two points shorter than Shishkin - to retain his title in March, it will be difficult for Nicky Henderson's star to regain that aura.
