Harbour recovering from surgery Chelsea Harbour is likely to return to action in time for the major festivals after making a full recover from surgery. The Irish chaser needed an operation on a hind leg following his run in the Hennessy Gold Cup at Newbury in November. That was a success thankfully, and the ten-year-old will go back into training shortly. He could be aimed at the John Smith's Grand National at Aintree, in which he fell last April, or the Punchestown Guinness Gold Cup. "Chelsea Harbour got a bit of an injury that knocked him out for six weeks to two months since he ran the last day in the Hennessy at Newbury," said trainer Tom Mullins. "He had an injury to a hind leg and had to have a small operation. He's okay now and starts back in work in a couple of weeks' time, and we might get him back to Aintree or Punchestown. The operation was 100% successful."
