good luck TAPK
December 26, 2016 at 15:22 #1278537WOW. JUST WOW
December 26, 2016 at 15:23 #1278538Now we know. Travelled like a dream. And on the whole the jumping was fine. How about those leaps at the open ditch?!?
December 26, 2016 at 15:24 #1278541Basically won it on the bridle, unbelievable.
December 26, 2016 at 15:24 #1278542i dont follow jump racing but that was different class to watch and well done TAPK on your foresight
December 26, 2016 at 15:25 #1278544Superb !!!! Well done TAPK and Bobby with those big prices, and to all other Thistlecrack
backers. He’s special
December 26, 2016 at 15:25 #1278545WOW!!!!
Posters like TAPK and Steeplechasing totally vindicated, well done guys
December 26, 2016 at 15:27 #1278548Thanks Graham, that was a bit special, and delighted with the 12’s.
Well done to everyone else, especially Gord, who will have won “slightly” more than me haha!
December 26, 2016 at 15:27 #1278549Bring on the Gold Cup, what a performance……

December 26, 2016 at 15:30 #1278550well done VTC
December 26, 2016 at 15:31 #1278551Not a jumps follower but think Thistlecrack is very special I had to put £300 on at 11/8 money aside that was pretty special!!!
December 26, 2016 at 15:35 #1278553My 10-1 slip is getting framed and hung in the hallway until March
That was magnificent. Flew those ditches like Kauto at his best. There have been better performances in recent history and winners posting higher ratings but the extra thrill there is knowing that Thistlecrack is still improving.
Just reviewing the thread – congrats VTC, TAPK and others who backed him.
December 26, 2016 at 15:36 #1278554What a performance! I’m over the moon this horse really is a machine. He just had all the answers when Cue card tried to ask the questions of him. Roll on the gold cup the fences look the biggest danger just cannot see anything getting near him with a clear round. Let’s hope he gets there safe and sound. Well done all who were on.
December 26, 2016 at 15:43 #1278557Has any World Hurdle winner ever won the King George……?

December 26, 2016 at 15:45 #1278558Potential proven now. Good luck to all GC backers and well done to the KG winners.
Best result overall for me on this race by far.
December 26, 2016 at 15:52 #1278563Well done Racing Orchid with Silviniaco Conti at the 50’s
