  • This really is one of the epic Nationals. Beau did appear unlucky and at one stage there were only going to be two finishers!!!

    This is something inspirational and rousing on a primitive level - like watching champion heavyweight boxers slugging it out.

    Two extremely gusty horses and crazy pilots!

  • i love hearing all these horses names - i was 8 years old when this i saw this race and i remember the horses so well - Beau, Papillon, Blowing Wind, Red Marauder, Smarty ect. lol i used to draw them all and pretend they were mind :') also Monty's Pass, Bindaree, Bobbyjo and Sunny Bay i loved.

    i remember how wet is was, cheering Red home through that mud. i remember he started that race as a big fine chestnut and came home almost unrecognisably brown! xxx

  • @postmodernnerd no bad getting 3rd or 4th if it did..........

  • Anybody who thinks  bigfella thanks is going to win in april is sooo naive, The horse has got pneumonia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • What poor coverage Racing UK! Awful!!! BBC commentary so much better. Racing UK had been covering this for over 10 years at this time and had learned nothing.

  • ... I was ultra-confident having backed mud-lover, Edmund. It looked as if he'd been shot at the Chair!

  • will never forget this race as had e/w bet on beau who was going well when not many still standing when he got caught up in his reins. gutted!!!!

  • The two Sunderland Metric Martyrs both had £50 each way on Red Marauder due to a misinterpreted conversation with Sun photographer the day before the race while they were getting their photographs taken.

    Not betting men they took 40-1 and celebrated with a pint.
