Moscow Flyer ‘ best by far’ for Geraghty

BARRY GERAGHTY hailed Moscow Flyer the best horse he has ridden after the reigning Queen Mother Champion Chaser confirmed his status as the best two-mile chaser in the business with a breathtaking victory over heir apparent Azertyuiop, exciting prospect Le Roi Miguel and three-time winner Flagship Uberalles in the £100,000 William Hill Tingle Creek Chase at Sandown on Saturday.

Geraghty enthused: “To win it this year, after what happened last year (Geraghty was unseated) was great. He’s different class. He’s so much pace. He was running away at the fourth-last.

“He stopped for a bit, I gave him a couple of cracks and he’s picked up again at the last and went away really well.
