West Sussex trainer Gary Moore had cause for celebration as Cheltenham on Saturday with Editeur Du Gite producing a brilliant performance to land the Grade One Clarence House Chase.

The classy two-mile chaser had won the Desert Orchid Chase at Kempton over the Festive period and he was an addition to this field following the abandonment of the race a week ago and it’s subsequent rescheduling.

Partnered by Niall Houlihan, the pair established an early lead in the contest and jumped with aplomb throughout to pile the pressure on defending Champion Chase hero Edwardstone and Tingle Creek winner Edwardstone.
