Aye had it each way

Imperial was absolutely dog sh[ii[/it!

Only about a fiver down though, had Zarkander in the first, Soldatino e/w, Join Together E/W, and Imperial Commander.

Nearly backed Long Run too, as long as one of them won I woulda been in profit but decided not to. He proved me wrong big style though, and at only 6 could be the king of jumps racing for many years.

My mate backed Long Run and he was always travelling very well. Now he has proved to me he handles Chelts there is no reason to oppose him in the future.

Left Baby Run as I thought the ground had got a bit quick for it, but was travelling well until the tip up! Zemsky also so difficult to say what would have won.

Happy for the Waley-Cohen's though, when asked about putting a pro on I read a quote from Robert once saying about how its his sons ride, win, lose or draw because it is a family horse first and foremost. I bet there is no prouder dad in the country today.

imperial commander broke blood vessel...
was going strongly before that to be fair

Captain Cee Bee in last years Akle, Time For Rupert the other day and now Imperial then. Must be me that causes horses to break down during races.

Long Run was bought just for Sam its not just his ride its his horse.

Had a ball last 4 days

Seeing Hurricane Fly win probs the best moment because I was there but that Gold Cup was just a good, probs the best top Grade race I have ever seen.

See you next year

Well done mate, glad to see a few of us made a nice few quid this week, you more so than most.
