Johnson back in business with déjà vu

Howard Johnson’s powerful string has suffered a few reverses in recent days but Deja Vu got the County Durham trainer back in the winning groove at Sedgefield today.

After watching his Blairgowrie fall and Supreme Leisure pull up in earlier races, Johnson was relieved to see course and distance winner Deja Vu stay on strongly on the testing going to land the Betfred In Shops, On Phone And On-Line Handicap Hurdle by seven lengths from Little Big Horse.
