Kerry for Kerry: Lee bidding for National glory with laid-out Bishops Road

Nicky Henderson is always desperate to win the race that honours his late father Johnny at the Cheltenham Festival, while David Pipe would dearly love to itch the scratch that is the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle – and now Kerry Lee wants to play the name game by winning 'her' race.

To be more specific, Lee is out to capture the jewel in Listowel's seven-day Harvest Festival – the Guinness Kerry National – with Bishops Road, who has been laid out for Wednesday's race.

A 25-1 chance for the 3m heat with BoyleSports, Bishops Road runs in the colours of Alan Halsall, who is right behind the bid.
