McCoy takes victory at his final Cheltenham Festival

Tony McCoy has bagged a winner at his final Cheltenham Festival in the first of today's feature races.

The legendary jockey, who recently announced that he will retire at the end of the season, has stormed to victory in the Ryanair Chase.

McCoy steered 16/1 shot Uxizandre to victory in the Grade One contest.

The Alan King-trained mount was able to pull away from Ma Filleule in the closing stages with Irish raider Don Cossack finishing third.

In the opening race of the day, the brilliant Vautour took the JLT Novices Chase after being sent off as the 6/4 favourite, giving Willie Mullins and Ruby Walsh another big winner at this year's festival.

The most recent result has come in the Pertemps Network Final as veteran English trainer Nickey Henderson finally got off the mark when 9/1 shot Call The Cops claimed victory.
