P674 CEEFAX 1 674 Mon 03 Jan 22:21/47 CHELTENHAM - ROAM ROMPS HOME 1/7 Free To Roam left his previous form behind to land the opening Ian Williams Owners Novices' Handicap Chase. The 8/1 chance, ridden bz Norman Williamson, had failed to trouble the judge on four previous outings but proved good enough on this occasion. It was not a great race by Prestbury Park's normal standards but you will not hear trainer Kim Bailey complaining about another winner at Headquarters. Clear two out, hj stayed on well to defeat the one-paced Madam Muck.

Venjtia Williams' charge relished the four-mile-one-furlong trip and had many of his pursuers in trouble with fully a mile and a half to race. He was still travelling well three out and won unchallenged by 12 lengths. Slideofhill denied Kinnahalla for the better of the minor placings.

"He may be entered for the National but I don't think he's an obvious Aintree horse," warned the trainer. "I guess it is a possibility but you have to have a special sort of horse to go to Liverpool with." Williams had earlier completed a brace on the card with The Outback Way (662).

The Lambourn trainer already has Triumph favourite Mister Banjo in his care and Regal Exit looked equally promising judging by his debut here. He never came off the bit to murder 11 rivals in some style and in the manner of a very classy performer. Regal Exit now rates a 10/1 chance for the Triumph following interest at 14s.

Already the trainer of ante-post favourite Mister Banjo, Henderson said: "I think Regal Exit is very nice and hj has a serious amount of ability - hj also has the size to jump fences. "He shows plenty at home and you just hope they translate it to the track. "But Mister Banjo is not a flashy workjt and I have no pecking order."

"He works at home like the best of our juveniles - nothing at all can live with him," declared the jockey. "Saying that, Mister Banjo is not a great worker at home and hj is still a very unexposed horse. "But this fellow won very nicely there and I was told by the boss not to move on him until after the last - he will immprovj a lot for that."
