What a great name for this Colin Tizzard trained horse Joe Lively as that is exactly what he was in the Novices Chase race at the Boylesports opening day. Joe Lively jumped his three opponents into the ground and went from the front and jumped like a stag.
Joe Lively went off the 11/2 third favourite for the Cheltenham Business Club chase and won hard held as neither of the two favourites could go with him. Both Imperial Commander and Ornais were well thought of and this has now shaken up the Royal and Sun Alliance chase betting at the Cheltenham festival with Joe Lively now coming in to a best price of 16/1.
This is just the type of horse you want to keep the right side of as he has a great attitude and clearly loves to jump and at Cheltenham these are the qualities that you want from the horses that you want to back.
