Horse Racing: Hurdles will be no obstacle for My Arch

My Arch has victories to his credit on the flat and over fences at Musselburgh and can add a hurdles success to his CV when the new jumping season opens tomorrow in East Lothian.

The gelding was sidelined for 18 months after sustaining a serious injury at Perth in the spring of 2008, but was nursed back to fitness by Ollie Pears for whom he made an impressive winning debut over fences on this track at the end of 2009.
