Have to agree with Masterminded, unbelievably easy win from Voy Por Estedes in the Champion Chase.
Going back further Willie Wumpkins winning the Coral year after year in atrocious conditions aged 11-12 and 13. |

Master Minded winning the 2008 Champion Chase as a young horse, reminded ne of how Tingle Creek dominated his peers. Thought he would have been about far longer than he was.

As a spectacle Edredon Bleu's 2000 Champion chase takes some beating, a fantastic race to watch and on proper ground.

The golden age of hurdling was the late seventies.
Thirty seven years ago a novice turned up for the first race on the second day of Cheltenham,he was trained by Eddie OGrady and ridden by Niall Madden,he was backed from 6/4 into 10/11 on the day,he was the Irish banker of all bankers. His name was Golden Cygnet. What he did to that excellent field that day was extraordinary. Those that were there will never forget it. |

Agree with Wildman,in his fatal fall race at Ayr later on that year was cantering over the likes of Night Nurse and Sea Pigeon in the Scottish Champion Hurdle when it suffered the fall at the last. |

Love the slog and battle of the RSA Chase.
Sorts out a lot of hyped novice chasers. Brief Gale - the midget smashing the unbeatable Harcon and Banjo and in recent times Weapon's Amnesty - sauntering to victory and whatcould'vebeen...... |

Seen CRISP win the Champion Chase, that was only his second race in this country, had previously won a Wincanton H'cap under top weight very easily. He was impressive at Cheltenham his first big test in this country, but later on that epic race in the Grand National with Red Rum, one of the finest performances I've ever seen on a racecourse.
Before CRISP came over here he jumped so well in Australia they called him The Black Kangaroo. Still one of my favourite horses ever. |
