Shloer Chase: Nube Negra saunters to Cheltenham victory for Dan and Harry Skelton

Nube Negra won the Shloer Chase at Cheltenham. Trainer Dan Skelton wants to keep him fresh until March. He will either run in the Desert Orchid Chase or at Kempton. Skelin is considering the possibility of going to the Tingle Creek. He needs to talk to owner Terry Spraggett. The horse was runner-up in Queen Mother Champion Chase last year. It is a shame the race had cut up for the participants and the spectators. However, it got the season off to a perfect start. They had to withdraw at the Festival because of unusual ground conditions.
