CHARLI PARCS breezed beautifully this morning ahead of his Festival trial at Kempton.
The exciting juvenile has been ticking over since becoming a late defector from a race at Cheltenham.
And connections are keen to get further experience into him ahead of Cheltenham in the Adonis Juvenile Hurdle.
Formerly trained in France where he impressed on his only outing, the JP McManus-owned gelding is, in Nicky Henderson's view, a perfect candidate for the JCB Triumph Hurdle.
However, in what will be the owner's decision he could run in the Supreme Novices'.
He impressed in some work with MY TENT OR YOURS, who is always generous on the gallops and will himself bid for the Champion hurdle.
BRAIN POWER had a stretch around Newbury on Betfair Hurdle day and will work at Kempton next week.
One of three Henderson candidates for the Stan James Champion Hurdle, he has greatly impressed his trainer in subsequent work.
BUVEUR D'AIR is also expected to visit a racecourse for some pre Cheltenham practice, while MIGHT BITE is firing on all cylinders.
