Cheltenham, Tuesday

William Hill Supreme Novices' Hurdle (Grade 1) (Class 1) 2m 1/2f Old, 4yo+

Quote:
A LAST flight blunder proved to be no hindrance to Cinders And Ashes who took the first race at the Cheltenham Festival for Donald McCain and Jason Maguire.
Quote:
However, they were unable to get to him on the run in and despite Prospect Wells storming up the hill from way back, Cinders And Ashes scored by a length and a quarter from Darlan (7-1) with a neck back to third home Trifolium (15-2).

Cheltenham Festival, Tuesday

Racing Post Arkle Challenge Trophy Chase (Grade 1) 2m, 5yo+

Quote:
SPRINTER SACRE marked himself down as one of the most exciting novice chasers in years with an electric winning display in the Racing Post Arkle.
Quote:
Winning jockey Barry Geraghty said: "He is a very good horse to ride. I said he is possibly the best and he might be.

"He gives you some feel. He knew what he was doing and if anything he was guilty of over jumping. He was not as fresh today, the boss had him in great shape."
