Tony Martin's Xenophon wins Coral Cup.

Tony Martin's Xenophon, the 4-1 favourite, won the Coral Cup under Mick Fitzgerald, bring the Irish tally to five, on the second day of the Cheltenham Festival.

The seven-year-old, who landed the valuable Pierse Hurdle at Leopardstown in January, was travelling much the best on the downhill run to the penultimate flight and, leading at the last, never looked in any danger on the flat.

Second was Martin Pipe's Samon (25-1), owned by soccer stars Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman, with Spectrometer (10-1) third and Emotional Moment (7-1) fourth.
