Moscow in top form after Sandown thriller

Jessica Harrington reports stable star Moscow Flyer to be in great form after his brilliant victory in the William Hill Tingle Creek Trophy at Sandown yesterday.

But a decision has yet to be made on where the 10-year-old will go next after he retained his remarkable record of having won all his completed starts over fences with a one-and-a-half-length triumph over Azertyuiop.

“He is back home, in great form and there’s not a bother on him,” Mrs Harrington said. “We’ll reflect on the race for a few days and make up our minds later this week.

“There is a lot to consider, especially what is best for the horse. If he doesn’t go to Kempton (for the King George VI Chase), then he will go to Leopardstown for the race he won last year.”
