Paul Nicholls on Denman
Trainer Paul Nicholls has paid tribute to Denman, one of the best steeplechasers of all time as he announced that he has been retired. Denman won a Cheltenham Gold Cup and was second in three more, lumped big weights to victory in two Hennessy Gold Cups and won a Sun Alliance Chase at the Festival in a glittering career. It's been ended by a slight tendon injury, which has ruled him out of the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown over Christmas. Paul Nicholls has been speaking with Mike Vince.
