Racing: Jessica Harrington reports Moscow Flyer to be in good health despite his significant drift in the betting for Wednesday's Queen Mother Champion Chase.

The 12-year-old has disappointed on both his starts this season and failed to sparkle in a gallop at Leopardstown last Sunday. Moscow Flyer is out to 9-2 with VCBet but Harrington insists all is well with her veteran stable star.

She told the Racing Post: "He was perfectly sound on Friday morning and had his picture taken. He seems to be in very good form and good in himself. I can’t do any more and he heads over on Saturday night with Macs Joy."

Moscow Flyer will be bidding for a third win in the two-mile contest after taking the race in 2003 and 2005.
