The Tizzard family’s love affair with the BetMGM Haldon Gold Cup continued apace when JPR One oozed class at Exeter to take the 2024 renewal.
Having won the race as a jockey on Lake Kariba and Flagship Uberalles back-to-back in 1998 and 1999 for Paul Nicholls, Joe Tizzard then teamed up with his father Colin in 2012 with the brilliant Cue Card.
Brendan Powell partnered Eldorado Allen to victory in 2021 when Colin still held the licence and when Joe took over at the helm, Freddie Gingell rode Elixir De Nutz to an emotional success last year.
JPR One was a Grade Two-winning novice last season and has had this as his aim since coming back into training and those who backed him at 11-4 never had a moment of worry.
Bryony Frost, on her return to the UK, tried unsuccessfully to make all on Sans Bruit and while Etalon and Scarface dropped away, Djelo began to get involved – but he was not travelling as easily as JPR One and Powell and went down by three-quarters of a length.
