I was there yesterday and have been many many times , again I was struck by the splendour of the place, its majesty even ,compared to other courses..Its simply a magical place and i fully understand the reverence its held in...I also had one of my worse days punting there yesterday...Luckily I got it all back and a little more today at Naas...

Always remember my first course visit the year Ten Up won the Gold Cup , ruined a good suit and expensive pair of shoes in atrocious weather.

I remember that Hayden. It was the last winner I bet. Arkle colours.

I tried to check the race as I thought that I had bet Ten Up and Bruslee in it. Two singles and a reverse fc but the clip only shows the last couple of fences. Mind you it was a long time ago. Bruslee was a big favourite of me. Won a small fortune ante-post when it won the Mackeson with Andy Turnell aboard. Didn`t stay the Gold Cup distance. Here is Ten Up in the Gold Cup. Great race it was.
