Champagne Fever won the same two races as Montelado
You are right Kavvie but it was still a similar achievement.
monsignor followed up his bumper win with a sun alliance hurdle the following year...........a monster who never got to fulfill his huge potential
i remember bkin montelado early in his careeer one day in limerick was 11/10 joint fav with a good horse of livingstons(I think)..got it hard enough to beat him..i still have the race card somewhere because i went thru the card.pity i was backing in fivers!!
What happen Monsignor, I remember he was a beast of a horse who won a few hurdle races and was going in the right direction?
ty lads el gato do you know for sure that Monsignor won back to back races[ like Montelado] ty
Bumper was not the last race at the festival when Monsignor won and anyway the Sun Alliance is the second day of the festival.
Montelado feat is unique as far as I know.
