    1. 2007 Champion Chase. All I really cared about at that years Cheltenham Festival was Well Chief winning the Champion Chase. He'd hacked up on his return in the Game Spirit and it looked like he only had to have clear round of jumping to win. When he fell early on it ruined the rest of the...

    Best horse to never win a Champion Chase

    Without question Well Chief. I'll also give Waterloo Boy a mention as he was unlucky not to win one.

    Who was the best horse never to win a Cheltenham Gold Cup

    Looking at Timeform's ratings I suppose Flyingbolt would be the best horse not to win the Gold Cup. The horses that spring to mind during the time I've been watching racing- Carvill's Hill One Man Exotic Dancer Gloria Victis Jair Du Cochet Teeton Mill Rushing Wild Florida Pearl

    :) No it isn't me Grasshopper. I wish it was because I'd love to have the collection of races that espmadrid has. The good thing is he accepts requests, so those Remittance Man & Azertyuiop races that I linked to a couple of weeks back were races that I asked him to put on youtube...

    Favourite Race

    It's a shame that race was his last victory, injury really prevented him from being remembered as a one of the great 2m - 2m 4f chasers. He would have won more than one Champion Chase without his leg problems. I don't know what Timeform rating RM ended up with but I bet he's rated lower than...

    Champion Hurdle 2014

    I really hope they let Annie Power take her chance in the Champion Hurdle. She would add even more intrigue and excitement to an already very high class renewal of the race.

    Road To The 2014 QM Champion Chase

    Loved the way Sire De Grugy jumped and travelled today. He can't beat an on song Sprinter Sacre but if SS didn't show up or run to form on the day then I don't see anything else in the 2m division troubling SDG.

    It was a great effort by Flagship Uberalles but Well Chief won the race in 2005 off top weight as a 6yo. :) It's a shame the race isn't a handicap anymore.

    The 2004 Tingle Creek was amazing but the 2003 race wasn't bad either.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QmWfrWUCfU Also the 2005 Champion Chase. Unlike most posters here I was cheering on Well Chief! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kPtQN0eVMo The 1992 Champion Chase is in amongst this video...

    Binocular retired

    He said: "He was the fastest horse to get from one side of a hurdle to the other that I've ever ridden and I think only Make A Stand could even compare to him. "He deserves the happy retirement that he's now going to enjoy at Martinstown (McManus's stud in Ireland)." Hurricane Fly &...

    Sprinter Sacre: should he run at further distances?

    If Sprinter Sacre, Cue Card & Flemenstar all turn up that would be an absolutely fascinating race to watch.
