Exciting novice chaser Iroko remains on course to make an unexpected comeback in the Turners Novices’ Chase at the Cheltenham Festival for co-trainers Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero.

Iroko has been given a Cheltenham Festival target, but connections will leave the decision regarding which race until closer to the event.

Training duo Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero have suffered a bitter blow with stable star Iroko ruled out of the season due to a foot injury.

Gesskille gave trainers Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero a first victory over Aintree’s famous Grand National fences when landing the £100,000 Grand Sefton Handicap Chase.
