MONK LANDS GOLDEN PRIZE


By Martin Kelly, PA Sport

Monkerhostin sprang a 25-1 surprise for trainer Philip Hobbs and Richard Johnson in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown.

Leading at the final fence, the 11-year-old galloped on resolutely up the hill to beat Royal Auclair (14-1), trained by Paul Nicholls.

Royal Auclair, runner-up in 2004, finished one place ahead of his stablemate Hoo La Baloo (9-1), who narrowly edged last week's Scottish National hero Iris De Balme, the 9-2 favourite, for third.
