Mouse set to roar at Cheltenham

Trainer Mouse Morris, who will be without his star chaser War Of Attrition at Cheltenham this year, is bullish that he won't go home empty handed.

He said this morning: "I only run two (China Rock and Brown's Baily) and am not bringing them over for the fresh air.

"China Rock runs in the Ballymore Novices Hurdle tomorrow and as he is by Presenting he will love the decent ground. Brown's Baily on Friday (Albert Bartlett) is a good horse on soft ground, but I think he could be a serious horse on good ground."

Brown's Baily is a full brother to Aran Concerto.

Mouse went on to say that he expects War Of Attrition to make it to Aintree next month as his setback is not serious.
