Santini back on track for RSA The Nicky Henderson trained Santini, a leading fancy for Wednesday's RSA Novice Chase at Cheltenham, worked this morning and appears over his sore foot. Henderson issued a number of statements regarding the seven-year-old who lost a shoe on Sunday and was sore. The foot required the application of a poultice and shoes were only refitted this morning. The trainer tweeted this morning that "All is well in the world this morning with Santini and we're firmly back on track for the RSA!"

He redeemed himself with a Grade 1 victory over hurdles at Aintree in April before going over fences this season. He won his first start over fences at Grade 2 level at Newbury in early December before finishing a close in a Grade 1 Novices contest at Kempton over Christmas.
