Moscow Flyer set for final preparation next week

Moscow Flyer is set to complete his preparations for the Cheltenham Festival with a racecourse gallop next week.

Trainer Jessica Harrington is planning to take the 10-year-old, who will be bidding to win the Queen Mother Champion Chase for the second successive year, to either Naas or Navan.

She told the Racing Post: “Moscow is in very good form and we’ll take him to either Naas or Navan.

"He may go to Naas on Monday morning but a lot will depend on the weather and what the situation is with frost.”

Mrs Harrington also plans to give her Smurfit Champion Hurdle hope Spirit Leader, and Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy Chase candidate Colca Canyon, a spin at the weekend.

“I’ll also be working my other Cheltenham horses including Spirit Leader and Colca Canyon at the weekend,” she added.
