Sire looks set to rule

Gary Moore has some big targets in mind for Sire De Grugy this season and a victory at Lingfield today should have his confidence riding high.

The six-year-old finished an excellent second in Grade Two company last time but connections are keen to get a bit more chasing experience into him before an intended Christmas outing at Kempton Park.

The six-year-old was rated 149 over hurdles and made a successful start to his chasing career when strolling home by six lengths at Kempton, despite a bad blunder at the second-last.
