Three-time Cheltenham Festival winner Vautour has been put down after breaking his leg in a freak accident. The Willie Mullins-trained seven-year-old won the Supreme Novices Hurdle in 2014 and the JLT Novices Chase 12 months later before running out a dominant winner of the Ryanair Chase on his return to Prestbury Park last March.Mullins said: Its been a lovely, dry day here and Vautour was out in the paddock with his usual companion Shaneshill.One of the girls went out to feed him. There didnt appear to be anything untoward as Shaneshill was grazing away, but Vautour was found to have broken his foreleg.He goes out there every day and its just a freak accident.Its tough to take.Vautour won 10 of his 16 starts overall, including five Grade Ones, and was last seen finishing second at the Boylesports Champion Chase at Punchestown in April.A Cheltenham Festival IconVautours career centred around the Cheltenham Festival. He came alive at Prestbury Park, which isnt to say that he couldnt be brilliant elsewhere; just that at Cheltenham, on good, spring ground, he was unbeatable.Here, we recap his three hugely popular victories and you can relive them by clicking the headline to watch the video replay.2014 Supreme Novices HurdleVautour arrived at his first Festival having won all three previous starts for Mullins. It seems remarkable, looking back, that he was allowed to go off a 7/2 chance, joint-favourite with Irving. Some had voiced concern that this supposed stayer may be tapped for toe on the quickest ground hed faced, but under an aggressive ride he produced a slick round of jumping and never looked like being beaten. Afterwards, Ruby Walsh called his willing partner a serious horse. It was to prove a vast understatement.2015 JLT Novices ChaseVautour would suffer his first defeat for Mullins in the second race of his novice chase campaign, when a shuddering error saw him unable to reel in Clarcam. It was a mistake which shouldve seen him hit the deck, by rights, but this nimble athlete in the mould of a Kauto Star rather than a Denman would pick himself up and rally. A confidence-booster in January saw him arrive back at Cheltenham on the front foot, and thats where he remained under another positive, you-cannot-beat-us ride. Vautour winged fence after fence for arguably his most impressive display as he romped home some 15 lengths clear of a Grade One-winning runner-up who was simply outclassed.2016 Ryanair ChaseA disrupted preparation following his gallant King George second meant, for the first time, Vautour arrived at Cheltenham without having raced that year. It was a setback which prompted connections to switch to the shorter, easier Ryanair, rather than the Gold Cup for which he was challenging for favouritism, and his six-length win over stablemate Valseur Lido left some pondering what might have been, had be been asked to take on Don Cossack and Cue Card on Friday. Still, those who backed Vautour into even-money will have had few complaints as, for the third time, he produced one of the standout performances of the week. It is a terrible shame that he will not be able to bid for a fourth success next spring. Nike Shox Outlet .J. -- Pitcher Carl Pavano is retiring after 14 major league seasons.

MORAGA, Calif. -- Saint Marys got a big lift from backup center Jordan Hunter when he hit a 3-point shot from midcourt just before halftime.Jock Landale, who starts ahead of Hunter, added his own signature moment early in the second half with a midcourt steal and a soaring dunk that helped get the 12th-ranked Gaels back on track after suffering their first loss of the season.Landale had 15 points and seven rebounds, Evan Fitzner added a season-high 12 points and No. 12 Saint Marys bounced back from its first loss of the season to beat UC Irvine 84-53 on Sunday night.Hunters 3-pointer was the first of his college career.That was pretty awesome, Fitzner said. That was big-time. Its a big play because going into the second half you kind of feel that momentum.Hunter rarely plays and was on the court fewer than 60 seconds when he made the halfcourt heave.I practice that all the time so it was just second nature when I let it go, Hunter said with a laugh. The ball came my way, I jumped in front of Dane (Pineau) and I just let it fly.Saint Marys (7-1) was crisp offensively most of the game and shot 56.3 percent from the floor, a vast improvement from two nights earlier when the Gaels went 16 of 51 in a 65-51 loss to Texas-Arlington.Landale, the leading scorer for Randy Bennetts team, bounced back from one of his worst games of the season to pace Saint Marys. Landale had seven points as part of a game-opening 12-3 run, then scored on an emphatic dunk early in the second half.We struggled the other night so its always good to get one back, Fitzner said. We didnt really have as good as energy as we had tonight. It always helps when youre making shots. Our guards did a good job of giving us open looks tonight.Jordan Ford scored 12 points and Emmett Naar added 10 to help the Gaels win won their third straight over the Anteaters.Eyassu Workue scored 14 points and Tommy Rutherford had 11 for UC Irvine.

Going in up 13, its a difference. It really is. It helped us and then we came out in the second half and you could kind of feel the momentum.POLL IMPLICATIONSBeating an overmatched Irvine team helps the record but wont make voters forget what happened earlier in the week. The Gaels will drop from No. 12 based on their loss to Texas-Arlington and could wind up falling out of the Top 25 altogether.BIG PICTUREUC Irvine: The Anteaters showed some spark early but eventually faded. Its a matter of consistency. Too many times Irvines players stood around rather than moving without the ball. Their usual strong defense also allowed the Gaels to shoot 64 percent in the second half.Saint Marys: It might not be enough to keep the Gaels from dropping out of the rankings, but they needed to have a feel-good moment and they got it against Irvine. Getting Landale back on track is a good sign.UP NEXTUC Irvine: The Anteaters continue their five-game trip against Nevada on Wednesday night.Saint Marys: The Gaels dont leave McKeon Pavilion until conference play begins. They will host Western Kentucky on Wednesday night.
