The Tommy Stack-trained horse Wanango will be using the Uttoxeter facilities to prepare for the Cheltenham Festival.

Wanango, who is taking part in Friday's Grand Annual Handicap Chase, has been flown over from Ireland to train at the Staffordshire racecourse.

"It's exciting for us to have a horse here that could win at the Festival," Uttoxeter general manager David MacDonald told BBC Radio Stoke.

The seven-year-old won easily on his last visit to Uttoxeter in February.
