Old Park Star taken out of Cheltenham engagement Old Park Star has joined Kabral Du Mathan in being a ground-related non-runner at Cheltenham on Saturday. The latter was taken out of the Paddy Power Arkle Challenge Trophy Trial Novices’ Chase by Dan Skelton on Friday, with Nicky Henderson issuing a warning that underfoot conditions could see his Supreme Novices’ Hurdle hero also miss out. With temperatures well below freezing overnight, officials at Prestbury Park were as expected unable to water and non-runners for day two are well into double figures on ground described as good.
