The MPs have left the paddock and are now saddled and at the starting line for this National (NO) Hunt hurdle race:

And off they go

Rishi Sunak's charges off and is in the lead in the first few furlongs

Cantering behind is Penny Mordaunt , Liz Truss

Kemi Badenoch Is back in forth , but looks strong and charge through on the rails, in the last mile

Oh no Tom Tugendhat has fallen at the last but one fence .

As they approach the finishing line this may end up as a two horse finish ??
