A classy looking renewal of the Grade 2 Peterborough Chase over an extended 2 miles at Huntingdon saw the Nick Williams trained Gauvain upset the odds winning the race by a good five lengths from hot 5/4 favourite, Somersby.

The 15/2 shot Gauvain, was given the opportunity to run in the race following his tumble at the eighth fence in the Grade One, RSA Chase at Cheltenham in March.
