Rejuvenated Camping Ground shows great spirit in runaway National win

Champion and Stayers' Hurdle winners have sprung from the National Spirit but few can have won as impressively as Camping Ground whose demolition of the race’s strongest field in years has Gary Moore dreaming big.

You could have pitched a long row of tents between the seven-year-old and the rest up the home straight in a performance that earned 20-1 quotes for the Sun Bets Stayers’ Hurdle and Coral Cup.

But Moore’s bigger plan involves fences for Camping Ground after a 29-length win from the front on his first start for the trainer.
