Murphy: Binocular 'one to beat'

Brave Inca’s trainer Colm Murphy is another to have taken serious notice of Binocular’s awesome performance on Saturday.

Murphy’s old stager won the Champion Hurdle in 2006 and was second in 2007 but is a long way adrift of Nicky Henderson’s four-year-old in the betting for next year’s renewal after he ran away with the Boylesports.com International at Ascot.
