Harry Fry: No decision yet on Opening Batsman's Cheltenham Festival options
Harry Fry admits it is “doubtful” last weekend’s Racing Plus Chase hero Opening Batsman will turn up at the Cheltenham Festival.
The seven-year-old has gone up eight pounds in the weights after winning one of the most prestigious staying handicap chases of the season at Kempton, a hike his trainer believes is a “fair rise”.

No decision has been made on Opening Batsman’s Cheltenham options
Opening Batsman holds four entries at Prestbury Park but, if he is to make the trip, he will contest either the JLT Specialty Chase or the shorter Byrne Group Plate.
Fry is not prepared to ask his charge to carry a huge burden in either the Kim Muir or the Pulteney Land Investments Novices’ Handicap Chase.

Fry said: “I think it’s a fair rise and no decision has been made about whether he’ll go to Cheltenham or not yet.
“We’ll let the horse tell us, see how he is and then make a decision next week.
“The owners are still on cloud nine and living the dream after last Saturday, so we haven’t had a proper discussion about it yet.”
