Sprinter Sacre has shown once again why he is dubbed the 'Frankel of the jumps' as he completed a seventh win over fences with a majestic display in the Victor Chandler Chase at Cheltenham.

He dominates betting for the Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival in March with 2-5 the best price available.

Not for the first time, Nicky Henderson's superstar was electric at his fences, taking the lead on the run to the sixth last jump after Mad Moose had opened a sizeable early advantage on the field.

Barry Geraghty quickened matters noticeably going to three out and while Sanctuaire had crept into it from the rear, his threat was only a fleeting one as Sprinter Sacre sauntered over the last two fences.

The gallant Mad Moose rallied as Sanctuaire began to toil, and got up past Somersby to take second, some 14 lengths adrift of the 1-5 favourite.

"I'm glad it's over. I had reservations about running, but we had to run," Henderson said.

"Barry was worried about the ground, I was worried he was a bit fresh.

"He can handle any ground, I think, and that's what a good horse should be able to do.

"He's such a gorgeous horse to look at, you would think he would be something special. He knows he is special and I suppose we are all starting to believe he might be."
