Upsets galore at Punchestown as Vautour endures more disappointment

There was an upset in today's big race at the Punchestown Festival after there was more disappointment for the "Vautour" connections.

English raider, God's Own, trained by Tom George and ridden by Paddy Brennan scooped the Boylesports Champion Chase.

The 9-to-1 shot held off a strong finish from Vautour to win by two lengths with the odds-on favourite having to settle for second-place after picking up too late to trouble the winner.

There was also an upset in the first of today's three Grade One races, as the Jessica Harrington-trained Don't Touch It held on to claim victory in the Herald Champion Novice Hurdle.

Earlier, the Enda Bolger trained Wish Ye Didnt repeated last year's victory in the Fr. Sean Breen Memorial Chase

And the Gordon Elliot trained Tempo Mac won an exciting finish to the Killashee Handicap Hurdle.
