Racing Post Christmas Party. Sporazene?

Regarding Sporazene. ‘He could be come a Champion Chase contender’ Does this horse have any chance at all in said race? Not for me.

If they could get it to jump fluently it may have claims. The CC looks weak again to me this year. Bar Newmill and VPU there isn’t much else out there to be feared…

I’m unsure as to why Sporazene is so highly regarded; his finest moment over hurdles was probably winning the County Hurdle, and he was very well treated on that occassion (something like 14lb ‘well in’?); and I’ve yet to see any evidence that he is superior over fences. Although, your right, the division is very weak at the moment, and he would have to be rated as a contender by default.

When Sporazene started his chasing career, PN considered him to be a live Arkle candidate. <br>Now Sporazene has his confidence back and his health problem sorted, I am more than happy to hear PN talk of the Champion Chase. The horse does have a lot of ability and speed.
