Innox on course for Gold run

Francois Doumen reported Innox to be none the worse for his fall in the Grand National ahead of a likely tilt at the Betfred Gold Cup on Saturday.

Doumen’s talented 10-year-old was a first-fence casualty in the John Smith’s-sponsored marathon at Aintree but has now recovered from that setback in time for the Grade Three contest at Sandown, for which he is a 8-1 favourite with the sponsors.
