Marble House justifies favouritism

Sat 31st Dec 2011, 15:17

The Seamus Neville trained Marble House (11/8f) improved one place on two recent runner-up efforts when winning the Follow Us On Twitter Beginners Chase at Tramore today.

Ridden by John Cullen, the son of Well Chosen moved to the front after two out before staying on well to comfortably defeat Too Wild For Der by seven lengths.

Afterwards Neville stated “Marble House deserved that after his last few runs. He’ll either go for a winners of one or a handicap – we’ll see what comes up over the next few weeks. Ultimately he’s a real three mile chaser as he is a real stayer.”
