#Highway One O Two

The 1/7 favourite was making it five from five over timber and landing his fourth Grade One with another near flawless display. Highway One O Two set out to make all and kept the market leader company to the home turn before he was passed by last year's winner and stablemate Epatante. But Nico De Boinville went through the gears aboard Constitution…

Those in attendance at Newcastle on Fighting Fifth day witnessed an extraordinary performance from Constitution Hill and Kempton racegoers should brace themselves for another majestic display in the Christmas Hurdle.

Kempton hosts an absolutely cracking card on St Stephen's Day as some of the UK's best National Hunt horses do battle. The King George is the feature race of the day at 2.30pm, but it's a cracking support card too with old rivals Champ and Paisley Park set to do battle again in the rearranged Long Walk hurdle before Champion Hurdle favourite…

Bravemansgame and L'Homme Presse feature among a final field of nine horses declared for the Ladbrokes King George VI Chase at Kempton.

The seven-year-old…

Michael Buckley, still revelling in the sensational atmosphere he experienced when Constitution Hill shone at Newcastle last month, hopes the Christmas crowd at Kempton can enjoy an equally thrilling treat on Monday when the sport's newest superstar lines up in the Ladbrokes Christmas Hurdle (1.55). Trained by Buckley's close pal Nicky Henderson,…

Protektorat flew the Lodge Hill flag high with victory in the Grade One Betfair Chase at Haydock but it is Skelton's handicappers who have been in scintillating form since then and the trainer has chances in both the Betfair Exchange Trophy - a race he first won with Willow's Saviour in 2013 - and the Howden Silver Cup Handicap Chase. The…

Few sires have thrown up good-quality staying chasers with the regularity that Saint des Saints has in recent years, with Djakadam, Protektorat and Saint Calvados all featuring among his best progeny. Gelino Bello is already one step ahead of that trio as a Grade 1-winning hurdler, which augurs well for his future prospects given that everything…

The National Hunt campaign stepped up a gear last week with the Showcase Meeting at Cheltenham, but it's this weekend when things start to get more exciting for trainer Chris Gordon, with at least two of the yard's brighter prospects set to be in action weather permitting. The weather certainly didn't cooperate last week causing Gordon to be…

PUNTERS were stung to the tune of more than £13000 after this crazy finish at Fontwell. Highway One O Two looked home and hosed in a Class 2 handicap over hurdles. Jumping the last miles clear of nearest rivals, all jockey Freddie Gordon had to do was get the seven-year-old gelding to the finish post in one piece. Punters thought it was a good…
