RUSSELL: FLEMENSTAR SETS STANDARD

Davy Russell is hoping Sir Des Champs will find the improvement needed if he takes on Flemenstar again in the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown on December 28.
The six-year-old met with his first defeat since joining Willie Mullins from France when he was beaten fair and square by Peter Casey's brilliant chaser in the John Durkan on Sunday, albeit over two and a half miles, and Sir Des Champs remains prominent in the ante-post betting for the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
