  Paul Nicholls has highlighted Wincanton as an early season target for exciting novice chaser Bravemansgame. The Grade One Challow Hurdle winner proved to be one of the hottest young stars in the Nicholls yard last season, winning three in a row before finishing in the places at Cheltenham and Aintree in the spring. Nicholls is reluctant to take the six-year-old back to Chepstow's jump season opener next month, where he won on his hurdles debut last year, and will instead aim for the Grade Two Rising Stars Novices' Chase in early November.                Andrew Nelis racing 

  Harry Skelton and Paul Nicholls - who were crowned champion jockey and trainer on the afternoon - were denied a dream end to the season when Enrilo lost the bet365 Gold Cup in the stewards' room, with Potterman the beneficiary. It looked likely to be the perfect finale for both at Sandown as 7-2 favourite Enrilo made a bold bid for home with three to jump. Enrilo made a bit of a hash of the second-last, giving his pursuers another chance. They included El Presente, Potterman and Kitty's Light, as Rachael Blackmore's mount Plan Of Attack began to weaken having travelled well for a long way.   Andrew Nelis racing news and reviews
