Jumps legend Inglis Drever put down after severe bout of colic

NATIONAL Hunt Racing is mourning a jumps legend after three-time World Hurdle hero Inglis Drever died yesterday morning.

The Howard Johnson-trained 10-year-old, who retired from racing in January, had to be put down after suffering a fatal bout of colic.

Inglis Drever made history at the Cheltenham Festival last March when he became the first horse to win the World Hurdle three times.
