Sergeant to take chargein Cup

HORSE of the Year Sergeant Cecil can land the first Group prize of his career in the Emirates Airline Yorkshire Cup at York today.

After becoming the first horse in history to win the Northumberland Plate, Ebor and Cesarewitch in the same season his days in handicap company are over.

But a fine reappearance when fourth in the John Porter Stakes at Newbury behind classy sorts such as Mubtaker, Munsef and Maraahel shows he has lost none of his dash.
