TJ Murphy sidelined on Sunday

Timmy Murphy was not in action at Market Rasen on Sunday after feeling "stiff and sore" following a fall on Saturday.

He took a tumble from Super Ally at the sixth fence in a three-mile one furlong handicap chase, but rode in the very next race.

"He rode after he had a fall at Ayr yesterday but felt a bit stiff and sore on the way to the races today," said his agent, Chris Broad.

"He told me he got to the races but decided to swerve it. He's going to have some physio. He'll be fine for Cheltenham."
