Robin Dickin has revealed that Restless Harry is working well ahead of his tilt at the 2011 Ladbrokes World Hurdle.
Dickin has been working Restless Harry at Robert Waley-Cohen’s gallops in the build up to next month’s Cheltenham Festival, rather than run him on testing winter ground.
Dickin believes the work is paying off and explained: "He's very well. He worked on Tuesday morning and worked very nicely.
"I haven't done a racecourse workout with him because the ground has been so appalling on every racecourse in the country. I didn't see the point.
"Very kindly, Robert Waley-Cohen lets me use his gallops and they are just absolutely fantastic and I've left space for him to another piece there next week. He will go for the World Hurdle."
Restless Harry was last seen finishing third behind Grand Crus in the Cleeve and he remains one of the less fancied runners in this year’s World Hurdle. Big Buck’s remains the favourite to win his third consecutive title, though there are plenty of punters looking to oppose Paul Nicholls’ superstar.
