Priceless Monet's stars in Roan

Monet’s Garden won the totetentofollow Old Roan Chase for an emotional third time with a thrilling success over Poquelin at Aintree.

The 12-year-old grey, who took this prize in 2007 and 2009, made all of the running and shook off the persistent challenge of Paul Nicholls’ runner to score by half a length in the hands of Dougie Costello.
