ROCKY COMPLETES CHASE HAT-TRICK.

Quote:
Rocky Creek galloped to a workmanlike success in the Sodexo Prestige Reynoldstown Novices' Chase at Ascot.
The seven-year-old, trained by Paul Nicholls, completed a hat-trick over fences, but he had to work hard to see off Houblon Des Obeaux.
Ruby Walsh took Rocky Creek to the lead two out only for the 8-13 favourite to slow down on the approach to the last, but the jockey quickly gathered his mount to go on and win by a length and three-quarters.
