Murphy lands L'Ami
Timmy Murphy has secured the ride on the Francois Doumen-trained L’Ami in the Stan James King George VI Chase at Sandown on Boxing Day.
With no mount for his retained owner David Johnson, the jockey was a possibility to partner Impek in the Grade One showpiece, but after Tony McCoy was booked for that horse Murphy’s agent Chris Broad got him aboard the French raider.
