    Flemenstar is so over rated. 9/4 was printing money for a forecast there.

    What an animal, on the bridle at 2m5?!! Gold cup next year anyone? haha

    AWESOME from Sprinter Sacre! Won on the bridle! SS 1st the rest nowhere! Gotta be the third best chaser of all time behind Arkle and Flying Bolt!

    Credit goes to Nicky Henderson, could've easily put him away for the rest of the season after the Queen Mother.

    How can you possibly coast home on the bridle against a hell of a horse like CC,and over CC's optimum distance?

    not to put a downer on the Aintree crowd, but i was in the paddock area when SS came back in at Chelts and the reception was electric

    that looked and sounded pretty tame
