Zamdy Man claimed the notable scalp of Un Temps Pour Tout in the Sky Bet Supreme Trial Novices' Hurdle at Haydock Park.

David Pipe's Un Temps Pour Tout, who cost £450,000 at the sales after finishing third in a French Grade One, could never quite get on terms with the Venetia Williams-trained five-year-old, who is now unbeaten in three races this season.

Aidan Coleman made sure it was a real test from some way out on Zamdy Man (7-2) to find any chinks in the armour of the 11-8 favourite, and he eventually won by a length and three-quarters.

Coleman said: "He's a massive horse, so we were delighted with him last season, even though he didn't win. This year he's strengthened up and is getting better with each race. He'll definitely handle better ground and you'd have to say he's a Cheltenham horse now."

Pipe was not too despondent with the runner-up. He said: "He's run a cracker. He handled the ground, but didn't jump as neatly as we'd hoped. We'll see where we go next but he's definitely a Cheltenham horse, as is the winner."
