There is a golden opportunity at Naas on Sunday for this chaser - he really should hit the target
The Jonbon form goes on trial at Kempton on Saturday as Boothill, the horse who chased him home in the Henry VIII Novices' Chase at Sandown in December, is favourite for the Coral Pendil Novices' Chase (2.25) on an intriguing card at Kempton.

Jamie Snowden's consistent seven-year-old ran an absolute blinder when chasing home the high-class Stage Star on his most recent outing in a hot Cheltenham handicap last month and a repeat of that should suffice here.
