This is how the money is to be distributed. According to Skelton this is a new pinnacle in the sport and honors a true racing legend
David Power Jockeys’ Cup: All you need to know about the biggest prize in Jumps racing history
The more I know the less I understand.
“A far more deserving cause for the money would surely be the IJF and owners should have been consulted first.
Bookmakers shouldn’t be deciding where money goes in the sport,
———————-Yep. As I said, I’d rather the money went into race prize money for all – for jockeys, trainers and owners. Or yes, the IJF too. But if race prize money or going to the IJF how do Power get prolonged publicity from it?
ie It may not be an either / or, but rather a matter of: Have this money this way or nothing at all. So the alternative might have been no money coming into Racing.Value Is EverythingSick of it already. Cobden is now on the post saying he’d rather win this than the jockey’s championship.

Fair play to the jockeys who visit Alder Hey but truth is that every one of those kids would have been more excited to pat Neptune Collange!
