Well Chief confirms status
Arkle Chase winner Well Chief (15-8) confirmed himself a class two-miler with an impressive success in the Martell Cognac Maghull Novices' Chase.
Martin Pipe's five-year-old was given a confident ride towards the rear by Tony McCoy and the pair made smooth progress to take it up at the last.
He jumped it well and came home two and a half lengths clear of main market rival Thisthatandtother, with Mister McGoldrick five lengths away in third.
