Gold connections confident of Big Hennessy run
Timmy Murphy feels confident of adding to his 1999 Hennessy Gold Cup success on Ever Blessed when he takes the mount of ante-post favourite Celestial Gold in tomorrow’s renewal of the big Newbury handicap.
The Irishman was on board the six-year-old two weeks ago when they took victory in the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham, and, if the horse can land the showpiece event, he will complete a rare big-race double that has not been achieved since Bright Highway in 1980.
