Barry Fenton suffered no ill effects from his fall at Kempton on Saturday and hopes to be back in the saddle later this week.

It was a day to forget for the rider as he was forced to give up his remaining rides after the Emma Lavelle-trained Another Moose fell in the betfair.com Rendlesham Hurdle.

That meant Ruby Walsh took his place aboard Marlborough in the Racing Post Chase as the 12-year-old galloped to victory in the £100,000 (€148,000) showpiece.
