Clarence House win is Altior’s 17th in succession Altior stretched his unbeaten sequence to 17 with a smooth victory in the Matchbook Clarence House Chase at Ascot. Nicky Henderson’s superstar did jump out to his left, markedly on occasions, but he had so much in hand over just two rivals it did not make any difference. Having to make his own runni
Agusta delivers for Danny and Mags Mullins Danny and Mags Mullins are a potent combination when they team up – and they left Navan with the feature race in the bag courtesy of Agusta Gold.
