Huntingdon Sunday

DESPITE an excellent entry, the Grade 2 Fitzdares Peterborough Chase, which included a lucrative bonus should the winner go on to land the King George and Gold Cup, was a disappointing affair, won in typically gutsy style by the well-established Top Notch (Nicky Henderson/Daryl Jacob), who was adding to his 2017 victory in the race when it was transferred to Taunton. (Jacob unfortunately broke his hand at Musselburgh on Thursday.)
