Yesterdays race

Thanks Hibs, never knew it existed before I saw it here(tu)

Wow, the winner very impressive.

I have seen that race live three times and it is a wonderful day out.
horses come from all over Eastern Europe for the meeting, and usually a couple of challengers from England and Ireland come over.
The Czech horses have improved greatly in quality in recent years and regularly win at the jump meetings in Germany and Italy.
British trainer Charlie Mann rode the winner one year after being refused a licence in England after breaking his neck.
It is a sensational meeting, and if anyone gets the chance to go the Arc, this race is run the Sunday following.
