Ollie Magern was today basking in the glory of his brilliant victory in the Charlie Hall Chase.

The nine-year-old was out in the open enjoying the dry autumn weather following his second victory in three seasons in the Wetherby feature.

His trainer Nigel Twiston-Davies reported the horse, who has been blighted by unsoundness, to have come out of Saturday's race in fine shape.

"He's fine. He's out in the field looking very happy," he said.

Twiston-Davies confirmed Ollie Magern would probably reappear in the Betfair Chase at Haydock on November 24, in which he finished fourth to Kauto Star last November.

"We are very pleased with him and I think he'll go to Haydock next," added the Naunton-based handler.
