I thought Cobden was superb on him as he didn't jump that fluently early on.

But you could see Cobden counting the strides into the obstacles the way John Francome used to do and got him in a great rhythm.

No coincidences in this game and when a horse meets an obstacle on a stride that's down to the pilot.

Doesn't look QUITE so expensive now, does he, the grey?
