Royal Relief won it in 72 & 74, the only horse part from MF to regain the crown, but dont know what happened in 1973
It was won in 1973 by Inkslinger. I don't know if Royal Relief ran?
thats what my old man said that royal relief might have. need to find out if royal relief ran in 1973 then i may have my answer?
Inkslinger must have been some horse, won the Cathcart ( over 2 miles in those days ) the day after winning the Champion Chase, last horse to win 2 races at the same festival
A real "anorak" pal of mine has reckons Royal Relief was second in 1973 at odds of 14/1 ridden by Phillip Blacker.
ur friend is a statto! why would the reigning champ be 14/1!?
Strange price mind, 15/8f when beating Tingle Creek into 2nd in 72 and 6/1 when winning in 74. To be 14/1 he must have had problems that season
Different jockey as well, Bill Smith rode him to his 2 wins in the race !
