VICTORIA Pendleton is likely to make debut at the Cheltenham National Hunt Festival riding Andy Stewart’s Pacha Du Polder.
Leading owner Stewart has made the runner-up in the 2015 Aintree Foxhunters available to the former Olympic cycling gold medallist for the rest of the point to point season and as a potential ride at Cheltenham.
Pacha Du Polder is qualified for the St James’ Place Foxhunter Chase.
Pendleton, who lives in Moreton, near Thame, said: “It’s great that an owner of Andy’s stature is putting his faith in me.”
