French star Master Dino in running for Novices’ Chase win

Master Dino is due to make his British debut at Plumpton on Sunday as he gears up for Cheltenham Festival in March.

France’s champion hurdler is now 16/1 in the race for the JLT Novices’ Chase.

A second start over fences at the Sussex National Meeting this weekend will be a tricky introduction.

But it could be one that leads to bigger things for the impressive five-year-old.

In this Saturday’s Tolworth Novices’ Chase, Ratthill is still the 7/4 favourite ahead of Elixir de Nutz at 3/1.

Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said: “JP McManus has three single-priced runners at the head of the Tolworth Hurdle betting.

So unsurprisingly punters are keeping their powder dry until we get more of a clue as to who is running.”

Elsewhere, Monsieur Le Coq has been well backed for the Handicap Hurdle.

The bay gelding is now 5/1 to take the win at Sandown Park this weekend.
