Heavyweights prepare for gold

Boxer David Haye visited two heavyweight champions of a different kind at the home of trainer Paul Nicholls at Manor Farm Stables in Shepton Mallet in Somerset.

Denman, left, and Kauto Star, the country's two greatest racehorses, were on show to mark four weeks until the pair contend for The Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Race fans will descend on the Cotswold town for four-day highlight of the jump season, the Cheltenham Festival from March 16 until March 19, which includes the season climax on the Friday in the form of the Totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup.
