Going key to Don Cossack cheekpieces decision at Cheltenham

The prospect of trying Don Cossack in headgear has been raised before, but became a particularly hot topic after Don Cossack’s latest victory in the Kinloch Brae Chase at Thurles.
While the success did show that Don Cossack was none the worse for his fall two out in Kempton’s King George VI Chase, it also raised questions as to whether cheekpieces might help him concentrate better in his races and avoid his tendency to find a flat spot.
