Three Long Walks for Reve De Sivola

Reve De Sivola showed tremendous battling qualities to grab the JLT Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot for the third year in succession.

Nick Williams' 13-2 chance went straight to the front under Daryl Jacob, but the alarm bells must have been ringing when odds-on favourite Zarkandar eased upsides at the third-last.

Sam Twiston-Davies was motionless on Zarkandar as he went into a clear lead at the last, but Reve De Sivola would not be denied, getting back on top on the run-in as the leader momentarily idled and then battling hard to stop Zarkandar's late rally by a head.

Williams' other runner, Aubusson, kept on well for third.

Jacob said: "This horse has been a big part of my career, when I started a job with Nick Williams he was one of the first horses I rode as a juvenile and for him to keep going the way he has and put in an effort like that was unbelievable. He has a massive heart."

Jacob also enjoyed good days with Zarkandar in his former role as stable jockey to Paul Nicholls, including winning the Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham in 2011.

He added: "I had three fantastic years with Paul and Zarkandar has been a hell of a horse for me as well.
