WINTER HEROES UPDATE

plus Cheltenham & Grand National previews

**************************** The UPDATE is a mid-season review of how the WINTER HEROES have performed up to the end of January.

There are new essays for each horse. The original pen-portraits have been reprinted in the appendix for reference.

The Cheltenham Festival and Grand National previews analyze the leading contenders and big-priced outsiders that could run well.

FOLLOW THE WINTER HEROES

There is no better way to enjoy the thrilling sport of jump racing than to follow a select group of horses throughout the winter months.

You will feel far more involved as the season builds towards the Champion Hurdle, Gold Cup and Grand National if you are following a group of horses with the potential to play staring roles at the Cheltenham and Aintree festivals.

Support your horses, cheer them on at the track or when you're watching them on TV.

You will become their virtual owner. So remember to celebrate any victories and, granted a little luck, you could have many special memories by the end of the season.
