Jonjo O'Neill lands first Grade One success aboard JP McManus' Champ
DELIGHT: Champ, ridden by Jonjo O'Neill Jr., found that extra bit in the final stages to win at Ascot.
Champ made a remarkable return to the smaller obstacles to win the Grade One Howden Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot.
The nine-year-old, trained by Nicky Henderson, was last seen being pulled up in the Cheltenham Gold Cup - but showed he retained all his ability when outpointing Thyme Hill and Paisley Park in the extended three-mile showpiece.
