THE featured Grade B Co-Op Superstores Handicap Chase was won by the Willie Mullins-trained, Simon Munir and Isaac Souede-owned top-weight Fan De Blues (11/10 favourite), who overcame some slow jumps at halfway before eventually scoring readily from Turbo.

Trainer Mullins said afterwards: “I was very disappointed with his jumping and at halfway I thought he was gone but when Danny (Mullins, jockey) grabbed a hold of him and gave him a squeeze, giving him a lot of assistance, he was way better.
