Strange gets best of Encounter with Brookville
Strange Encounter seems to be around for a long time, though he's still only seven (won a 4yo maiden point-to-point at Rockfield back in November 2008) and he gained his second racecourse success by landing the 2012 Membership "The Ideal Xmas Present" Handicap Hurdle at Navan. Mon 19th Dec

Sneezer gets home in last

There is pre-Christmas action for punters to sink their teeth into at Navan and the Santa Claus Maiden Hurdle gets the fixture under way at 12.20Sat 20th Dec
He'll have another crack at one of those. He could go novice chasing in the spring when some of the better horses are gone. He deserved a bit of luck (slipped up last time).
Philip Fenton
Strange Encounter seemed to be going nowhere six weeks ago but improved. He kept rising in the weights without winning but I'm delighted with that. He'll go for another handicap next and may then go chasing.
