Lane takes Newbury option

Moor Lane, current favourite for the Martell Grand National, will line up in the Sodexho Prestige Chase at Newbury tomorrow.

The Ian Balding-trained gelding is a general 10-1 chance for the Aintree showpiece and he will bid to forward his claims in the three-mile event, which has been chosen in preference to an alternative engagement at Doncaster.

On his last run, the 10-year-old won the Great Yorkshire Chase at Doncaster and he will face 10 rivals at the Berkshire track.

Kim Bailey`s Wonder Weasel heads the list of challengers along with Kadou Nonantais from Oliver Sherwood`s yard.

The rest of the field is made up by Strong Tel, Plaid Maid, Storm Damage, Echo`s Of Dawn, Wishbone, Lordberniebouffant, Luke Warm and Fin Bec.
