Sky Sports Racing November Raceday at Plumpton Racecourse

Monday 18 November 2019

The start of the Cheltenham Bonus Series begins at this fixture. The Plumpton Racecourse Cheltenham Bonus Series offers the connections of a horse that wins one of five nominated Novices Chases at Plumpton the opportunity to scoop the valuable £60,000 cash bonus if it goes on to win any steeple chase at the Cheltenham Festival in March. It was last won by Voy Por Ustedes who won at Plumpton before going onto triumph in the Arkle Chase in 2006.

This fixture always unearths some quality, last year’s first qualifier at the corresponding fixture was Mister Malarky before we saw the likes of Kalashnikov, Master Dino, Ok Corral and Good Man Pat all qualifying for the Bonus Series during the 2018/19 season. All but Master Dino went onto race at Cheltenham during The Festival with Mister Malarky being The Festival highlight, finishing 4th in the RSA and later on in the year Kalashnikov went on to win the Devenish Manifesto Novices’ Chase grade 1 at Aintree.
