Our Ben’s fatal fall mars Legend success

OUR BEN, who came into yesterday’s featured Wilf Dooly Chase at Tramore in the form of his life, suffered a fatal fall when breaking his neck at the second last.

The odds-on shot set off to make the running, but looked in trouble when market rival, Knight Legend, was eased past after five out by Barry Geraghty.

Knight Legend soon strode clear and turned down hill to the penultimate fence with a healthy lead. Our Ben, however, rallied in terrific style and was right back in contention, upsides, when departing at the obstacle.
