Now you're really pushing it, Scotia. In case you have forgotten this is a Tellytrack feed you are watching. Just getting a full screen during the race is an Act Of God. The reason so many posters don't like jump racing is simply because they have only heard about it and have never actually seen it!! Lol.

Garrick the tears must have been flowing

Not too often you see Ruby Walsh so enthusiastic. It must be a great day for him.

Txs Bob a brilliant pic

I'm not a jumps punter myself . I watched this race and noticed that Long run made up about 6 lenths on Kauto at the 2nd last then did not jump the fence cleanly which cost him about 5 lenghts then he made the ground up again and made the same mistake going into the last and boy was he closing the gap at the finish .

Had Long run cleared those fences cleanly he woulda won . You got to say that was a masterful ride by Ruby Walsh .

when and where will this Long run run again ?

I am sure they will clash again at Cheltenham in the Gold Cup and probably Long Run will be fav, in addition Grands Crus could also be a factor?

What a ride on Finians Rainbow, great cure for constipation

Ahh Scotia, couldnt quickly find this thread so posted Finian's wow victory on "Limerick"

Gee, absoltutely amazing .......... I said on the "Limerick" that I am glad it has been raining in Jhb, yay
