Joyuse has risen to victory in Newbury to keep the William Hill Hurdele Cup in the Nicky Henderson yard.
Ramadi from the Epatante family and such a Persians is owned by JP Mcmanus, which was collected by Henderson and Nico de Boeville to win this race last season with Iberico Lord.
This horse was part of the squad again, but De Boinville chose to ride a jobus and came out a chance of 9-2 under a favorable weight.
It flourished in a fast -paced race on soft ground, exploded in the final stages and crossed the line in Canter when eight lengths before the broken Sam Thomas amount.
Joyeuse has been reduced to 8-1 by betting on the boycott, but the Persians are currently not being running in a barrier at the Shellham Festival.
Henderson said: “It is good and looked well there, traveled well, jumped well and did everything correctly,” Henderson said.
“I really withdrew and you should say that she was in an ideal situation all the way. It was just perfect and everywhere I looked at it, it seemed very clear.
“The step was back on the journey well and this was two real miles and I think a little pieces on the ground helped.
“She cannot go to an obstacle at the Schlentham Festival because she needs another tour of entering, and I would barely run it again between now and Celtinham. She only had four runs on obstacles and needed another operation in a barrier.
“It caused a dilemma, but it is a good problem.”
Henderson won the race for the seventh time and the coach was again pleased with the award rich in his local course.
He added: “It is a wonderful race and a local race, and one of them has followed it throughout those years. Her names have been changed several times but well with William Hill for coming and care – this means a lot to everyone.
“It’s a good mare and all the winners were good and came here under various forms. It was somewhat experienced but it was good. This is just the fourth Aqaba race in her life.”
De Buenville Buyuz admired him, but he described as “madness” the fact that Joyeuse could not go to the Cheltenham obstacle at the present time.
He said: “I passed the race easy and jumped wonderfully. It was very clear.
“It is crazy that she cannot go to Schlentham. I would like to say that you can win such a handicap, but you cannot run in Schlentham, there is more money here from Schellitham.”
