Buena Vista is a long time favourite of mine. Would have loved to include him but had to draw the line somewhere. Other is the option and let the love flow for Buena Vista!!

long run

only one id add to that lot was albertas run
fantastic run from the front finding and fending
off every challenger one by one and a fantastic ride
was great to watch

quevega was stunning beating not much though

long run awesome, jumping less than perfect but what power
the horse has. i wasnt convinced until today

bb a class act also just refusing to be beat.
reminded me of giants causeway when grand crus
got upsides...relishing a battle...just laughed at the opposition

Mine was Big Bucks. Not a huge fan of the horse and never backed him. Grand Crus, Fiveforthree & Mourad came up to his hind quarters and he simply ran away from them. Ruby admitted to a poor mistake dropping the whip. Class act of a horse.

Pity cant jump a fence.

I was very impressed with Sizing Europe. Hardly an ideal preparation, in the firing line all through the race itself, and still able to speed away from Big Zeb, who in turn finished well clear of the rest.

Hope they campaign him as a two miler from now on, but who knows.

You could argue that Kauto 'performed' as well as anyone. 11-years-old, summoned that class of his from his prime and almost pulled it off.

Ruby on Big Bucks was the ride of the week - although McCoy on Noble Prince was a class act, too.

Sizing Europe for me aswell, romped home and was very impressive. Big Bucks would be up there too

I voted Long Run but Albertas Run deserves a mention. After the season he's had, to put in an effort like that was brilliant. The horse just finds and finds. No wonder McCoy loves him apart from the fact that he's delivered big races. Ryanair was made for the horse and the horse made for the race.
