Istabraq is an all time great horse. An absolute legend but I believe Constitution Hill would beat him over 2m.
Couldn’t agree more GM.
”Is Master Minded one of the greatest champion chasers , one or 2 brilliant performances but no longevity”
Of course he’s one of the greatest ffs.
That’s an opinion , we will never know , we do know that Istrabaq won 3 Champions and the hill can’t jump anymore

No – I’m just cognisant of the old line (often misattributed to Mark Twain) about arguing with an idiot.
”Better then Sprintre , than Altior”
He doesn’t need to be to still be great.
Nothing is better than Sprinter over 2m imo.
I think Master Minded’s first Champion Chase win beats any version of Altior.
“I think Master Minded’s first Champion Chase win beats any version of Altior.”
Agreed, GM.
I have Master Minded’s first Champion Chase success in my top three performances in that race, together with Badsworth Boy in 1983 and Sprinter Sacre in 2013. It’s interesting that all three put up their best performance in their first QMCC.
“Altior achieved more though , had longevity to”
Kauto achieved more than Denman

Grangeclare West has just beaten Gerri Colombe further than Galopin Des Champs did in the Gold Cup. That obviously means that Grangeclare West Is better than Galopin.
Case closed.
Head to Head though Hughsie Denman beats Kauto , he was the better stayer , Kauto won loads at shorter Glad you still haven’t answered that closed question , why not
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
Kauto Star won two Gold Cups to Denmans one
The only head to head that counts… longevity, trophy cabinet etc
its a non contestGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
You could also argue that Denman only won 1 of his last 10 starts which was a handicap.
“Glad you still haven’t answered that closed question , why not”
I’ve already told you, and you’re only proving my point.
