Moscow still flying at home

Moscow Flyer remains on course for the Queen Mother Champion Chase after pleasing trainer Jessica Harrington in a spin at the Curragh this morning.

The 11-year-old is the 13-8 second favourite behind Azertyuiop for the two-mile race after winning all of his four starts this season.

Moscow Flyer has already beaten Azertyuiop in the Tingle Creek Trophy this season and Mrs Harrington has been satisfied with his progress since he won at Punchestown in January.

“Everything went well this morning. He just went on the gallop at the Curragh and I was pleased with him – he’s done well since his last run,” said Mrs Harrington.

The Irish handler also had her Smurfit Champion Hurdle hope Macs Joy in action.

She added: “Macs Joy also worked. He went well and is on course for Cheltenham.”
