    I can’t believe Cunha has just repeated the same atrocity of a ride as last time.

    Get him jocked off now, never to be on Mahons Glory again.

    Horse would’ve won cosily if he had a jockey with a braincell onboard. I’m absolutely fuming.

    He doesn’t stay GM , that was a proper test , Jesus even Vango
    was off his feet , Vango should have been about in the 80s , a proper soft/heavy national back then would be right up his street

    They’re taking a look at the finish, so I’m not getting ahead of myself just yet.

    Some finish in the conditions.

    HDLG, he kicked with a circuit to go. No horse stays when ridden like that.

    It’s an absolute miracle he finished as close as he did.

    All Cunha had to do was sit tight until he jumped the last then kick.
    Guy got too excited again and emptied the horse. He’s a clown.

    I think Mr Vango would’ve won if he hadn’t been nudged out by the elbow.

    GM he loves the fences but just can’t get home , he got ahead with his jumping , I don’t think he,s the type you’ll get a breather into

    Mohan’s Glory doesn’t stay, Twig what a race and Mr Vango if he handed been forced wider on elbow would of won.
    He loved the fences hopefully back for more at the Grand National now

    Thank you all. That was a nervy finish and a nervy wait, but I’m glad for the horse that he has a big prize like this to his name. I didn’t get anything near the price you could have got at the start of the week, and it was half my Galia Des Liteaux stake, but I love this race and I pride myself on having a good go on it each year.

    In retrospect Twig is the most Becher Chase horse this side of Feels Like Gold, so I should have known better.
