Didn't know where to post this so thought I would post a thread for anyone who hasn't seen this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhOvEcG0zGY lovely video from Haydock racecourse with great commentary on all of his betfair chase wins
Brilliant thanks for posting. That even got the attention of my little lad which is some feat as he loves his cbeebies
that vid brings tears to the eyes. more so remembering watching all the races at the time. the 2011 victory was wonderful to watch (and that was before the KG) i'm already missing seeing kauto star race. but ignoring the CGC he retired with a huge rejuvinated following public
I wonder if there will be a Kempton tribute. Here's a reminder of how I almost snuffed it. What a sentimental old twat I am.
yes i wondered that. he regularly flew at kempton, races i watched time and again. it would be good to see a compilation for there as well. i think it was discussed on here that they were possibly going to name a race after him there as well?
i remember watching the race at mine last year on boxing day with my family ,my dad is a big racing fan and loves arkle as he grew up watching him we had a £2 mini bet with each other i was going to choose kauto but went with masterminded (twat) and my dad went for long run i just remember looking at my dad with a huge grin on my face when kauto star crossed the line my dad looked in disbelief as he said long run would improve miles from haydock but even he said thats a good horse and he is as bad as andrew from greenford when it comes to arkle
