Barry Geraghty has admitted he can’t wait to partner Finian’s Rainbow at the 2011 Cheltenham Festival, but believes the talented chaser should have one more run before March.

Nicky Henderson’s highly regarded superstar has been impressive so far this season, winning twice on both his starts over fences and he currently heads the betting for the Irish Independent Arkle Trophy next month.

Geraghty explained: "We thought he was very good over hurdles and were hoping he'd make the transition to fences the way he has, he's done everything right so far.

"The first day he won at Newbury was probably a better race than the second day. The second horse came out and franked the form by beating Medermit at Cheltenham and that reads well.

"In an ideal world you'd give him another run to get some more experience but he's a lovely horse and I'd be looking forward to him.

"He has the option of going to Warwick or Kempton for the Pendil so there are races for him and all being well he'll go for one of them."

The jockey also admitted he can’t wait to partner Bob’s Worth after his victory over the weekend and continued:  "He was a little novicey at a couple down the back on Saturday but at the business end he really came alive and seemed to pick up well after the last. He won well and is a horse who is improving all the time.”
