(credit: Paolo Camera) Related Articles See all Racing news Share it Pin It Legendary trainer Nicky Henderson has admitted he is facing a dilemma wondering where to take Punchestowns for his next race after he was forced to withdraw from the Dipper Novices' Chase at Cheltenham last Friday. The Ladbrokes World Hurdle runner-up was withdrawn after the freezing temperatures caused officials to inspect the track on three occasions. Henderson explained: "He's a big heavy-topped horse who hasn't been without his problems. Although the ground was as safe as houses there was a slight doubt in my mind. "Now he will be the big nightmare because there's nothing for him. What I would give for a track to give us a nice two-and-a-half-mile novice chase somewhere. "I'd like to get another couple into him ahead of the Festival, but we're looking at quite a disruption with the weather."
