A crack at the Chester Cup could be on the cards for Gordonsville after the six-year-old gave Jim Goldie a third success in the £20,000 Musselburgh Gold Cup.

BRYAN Smart really had to put his back into it to get his horses to Musselburgh yesterday and his efforts were rewarded when Nortune ran out a 10-1 winner of the totesport 0800 221 221 Maiden Stakes.

Jim Goldie won his “Derby” for a second time when he saddled Reluctant Suitor to land the totesport.com Musselburgh Gold Cup in front of a big Easter Sunday crowd.
