Sunday 5 April 2026 21:52, UK Alan King's Edwardstone goes in search of yet more glory in this afternoon's Sussex Champion Chase - live on Sky Sports Racing. 2.35 Plumpton - Veteran Edwardstone faces four rivals The veteran Edwardstone heads a field of five assembled for the Betgoodwin Sussex Champion Handicap Chase over the two mile and one furlong trip.
