Overturn produced another superb front-running display to keep his unbeaten record over fences intact in the Scottish Arkle Novices' Chase at Musselburgh...
Donald McCain's incredible dual-purpose performer was a long odds-on favourite following impressive rounds of jumping at Sandown and Doncaster, but faced an interesting challenger in the shape of Nicky Henderson's Kempton scorer Tetlami.
Overturn was soon adopting his customary trailblazing tactics and even with a circuit to go it was clear Tetlami was struggling to keep tabs on the nine-year-old.
Jason Maguire continued to wind up the tempo heading down the back, with some fine leaps keeping the pressure on.
By the time he rounded the final turn Overturn was well clear and safely negotiated the remaining obstacles in the straight to score by am emphatic 29 lengths.
Tetlami was the only other finisher, with Asaid refusing to start and rank outside Next Sensation falling when well beaten at the second-last.
Overturn has been cut for the Arkle on the back of that impressive display, now trading at 4.84/1.
