Zerachiel has been running well in marathon handicap chases this season without getting his head in front, but today he got the job done with a dour and game effort to land the Tim Molony at Haydock Park under Tom O’Brien.
Apart from a bad mistake 6 out, Zerachiel jumped efficiently and was always going well under Tom, who took a wide course down the far-side.
Moving into contention turning for home, Zerachiel joined issue at the second last and eventually drew clear after the last to win by 15 lengths.
