Flyer continues to please

MOSCOW FLYER delighted trainer Jessica Harrington as he led a group of her Cheltenham hopefuls in a schooling session yesterday.

Favourite to regain his crown in the Queen Mother Champion Chase this day week, the 11-year-old jumped three fences at Mrs Harrington’s Co Kildare base in the hands of his regular pilot Barry Geraghty.

“Everything was grand. He jumped fine and Barry also schooled Colca Canyon, Ulaan Baatar and Macs Joy,” said Mrs Harrington. “Moscow will go to the Curragh tomorrow for a breeze up.”
