Jonbon emerged a convincing victor in his long-awaited clash with El Fabiolo in the 2024 bet365
Celebration Chase at Sandown.
The pair had initially been due to meet in the Clarence House Chase at Ascot back in January only to be scuppered by the weather, while a possible Queen Mother Champion Chase face-off did not happen as Jonbon was ruled out by trainer Nicky Henderson during a tough period when his stable was under a cloud.
However, the Seven Barrows team has been resurgent in recent weeks with Jonbon quickly back in action after a hard-fought win when stepped up to two and a half miles in the Melling Chase at Aintree earlier this month.
Ridden with supreme confidence by Nico de Boinville, Jonbon (15-8) fairly flew up the straight, clearing the last with a good advantage and galloped home four lengths in front of the 4-6 favourite El Fabiolo, who made a couple of jumping errors as he failed to atone for a costly mistake at Cheltenham that had seen him pulled up in the Champion Chase.
El Fabiolo’s second place prize-money did at least ensure Willie Mullins was crowned champion trainer.
