Frodon must have strong each-way claims for the JLT at 20-1

Frodon ranks as one of the most likeable and genuine horses in training and his game Pendil Novices’ Chase win confirmed the five-year-old a serious contender for the JLT.

Frodon will have experience on his side next month and would have solid each-way claims at 20-1 with Betfair Sportsbook and Betway, although trainer Paul Nicholls is tempted to head to Aintree or Ayr instead

River Wylde was shortened to 12-1 (from 33) with Betfair Sportsbook for the Supreme after winning the Dovecote. Despite a much-improved showing on better ground, more will be required to score at the festival and the same can be said for Adonis winner Master Blueyes, who is likely to be Triumph-bound.
