DORSET trainer Colin Tizzard cannot go wrong at present and, following Cue card’s impressive victory at Haydock, Native River (8/1) prevailed in the Grade 2 bet365 Novices’ Chase as the three-day Hennessy meeting opened at Newbury on Thursday.

This is smart form with the RSA Chase at Cheltenham in mind because Native River was conceding 7lb to David Pipe’s 6/4 favourite Un Temps Pour Tout.
