Moscow set for Fortria comeback
11/11/2005 - 12:14:16Moscow Flyer will face just four rivals when he makes his seasonal bow in the Fortria Chase at Navan on Sunday.
Jessica Harrington’s 11-year-old suffered a surprise defeat on his last start at Punchestown in April when Rathgar Beau beat him a short head in the Kerrygold Champion Chase.
That was the first time Moscow Flyer had been beaten in 20 completed chases but he did take this event last season before going on to win again at Cheltenham.
Always, a winner of a Grade Two event at Gowran last month, represents Noel Meade, while Michael Hourigan runs Hi Cloy and Dessie Hughes has Central House.
Arthur Moore’s veteran performer Native Upmanship completes the line-up.
