When Denman and Kauto rounded that bend neck and neck my heart was in my mouth – thought we were going to get the finish we had wanted 12 months ago.
Noble Prince too – Thursday was the only day I couldn’t make the festival, but found time to watch the Jewson, scared the hell out of my friend, my celebrations were about as exuberant as Nolan’s!
Proper pocket talk, but for the bumper me and some fat man dressed as a horse I’d not met before both backed Destroyer Deployed e/w at 66s. Got a bloody fortune for it being second!
The way Quevega finishes just amazes me every time.
Big Buck’s, obviously, just what a horse. Really deserves the place in history he’s earned himself.
Also, after losing the ride on Hurricane Fly (who was excellent) lovely to see Paul Townend get a festival winner too.
I think Best Mate was a brilliant horse, but I don’t think there was the calibre of horses in the few years he was chasing we have now, I think, though, what he did was excellent and will get him a well deserved spot in the games history, he wouldn’t have got past Kauto or Denman on the top of their games.
With regards to Long Run, great finish etc, but I think that had he come against Kauto, Denman or maybe even Exotic Dancer he would struggle to beat them.
