Red rides high for hot Hannon

Results went Richard Hannon’s way in his attempt to become champion trainer, with Red Badge playing his part in the Whiteley Clinic Select Stakes at Goodwood.

The only previous title victory for the stable was in 1992 but with nearest rival Sir Michael Stoute failing to spoil the day by winning the Ladbrokes St Leger, Hannon retains a slim lead ahead of the autumn deciders.
