Cooldine runs riot in RSA

Cooldine galloped his rivals into the ground when running out a wide-margin winner of the RSA Chase at Cheltenham.

The 9-4 favourite was always close to the pace in the hands of Ruby Walsh and it was ominous for his rivals when he cruised to the front two from home.

Fellow Irish raider Horner Woods briefly looked a danger as the turned into the straight but Willie Mullins’ seven-year-old saw out the three-mile trip best of all to score by 16 lengths.
