Stumptown ridden by Keith Donoghue wins The Paddy Power Handicap Chase at Cheltenham.

A Kerry syndicate marched into their "theatre of dreams" - the Cheltenham winners' enclosure - on Monday to begin the new year on a high.

The Gavin Cromwell-trained Stumptown came to the fore to take the Paddy Power Handicap Chase under rider Keith Donoghue. A 5-1 chance for the staying contest, the seven-year-old stayed on best of all up the hill to prevail by five lengths.
