No cheating fellas and I will be impressed if anyone knows this without looking it up. (there should be a prize)

Which horse gave the Ruby Walsh/Paul Nicholls partnership their first winner together?
 
I have no idea stick. You might have to give a clue or 2. If I were to hazard a guess at Masterminded, how many years out would I be?
 
I was about to say that can't be right because he rode Kauto before that. But 6 years, Hmmmm

How far back was Azert................p
 
No idea. I'll have to look it up but if I find the answer I won't post.
 
2001 Fadalko in the Melling Chase for Sir Robert Ogden.

Walsh turned down a very large retainer to ride full time for Nicholls back in those days. He didn't want to leave his home,family and friends. He also had a huge loyalty to Willie Mullins who really gave him a great start in the game. He must have clocked up so many miles over the years travelling to and fro. Respect!
 
Fadalko only faced the National fences once when unseating in Montys Pass' National.


One more teaser and again please don't cheat.

How many times did Ruby win on Florida Pearl?
