JACK HIGH, confidently handled by Garrett Cotter, proved a convincing winner of the €85,000 Stanleybet Troytown Handicap Chase at Navan yesterday.

BIG-RACE jockey Jim Culloty, having his first ever ride in the contest, grabbed yesterday’s Powers’ Gold Label Irish Grand National in the dying strides aboard Dessie Hughes’ Timbera and thinks the horse could be an Aintree Grand National contender next year.

Tony McCoy has equalled Gordon Richards' record for the most winners in a season when he won on Shepherds Rest at Warwick.
