Lac Fontana triumphs in County Handicap Hurdle

Lac Fontana has dug deep to win the Vincent O'Brien County Handicap Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival.

The 11/1 shot, ridden by Daryl Jacob, came out on top in a thrilling finish that saw him edge out Arctic Fire by a length.

Jacob, who has marginally missed out in several races throughout the week, told Channel 4: "I just wanted to keep my head down and keep working. One thing that I will always do is keep grafting and fight for all that I can."

Montbazon finished the race in third place, while Diakali followed in fourth.
