What do we think of this idea then? A bit like the Pertemps series but 5 different races with qualifiers throughout the season, limited to horses rated 135 or below. Finals day at Haydock on Easter Saturday.

I suppose it is a good idea to try and get some cash injected into the "middle ranks" of the sport but is it really a game changer? I think more novice chases is a constant plea from NH stalwarts (including the forum's favourite trainer) but they don't seem to be doing much about that??
