Great to see the old boy win his last race, showing his trademark turn of foot in the last furlong. Happy retirement and lets hope this time he stays retired and happy.

What a horse he's been for his connections! Great to see him retire on the back of a win.

What a terrific servant to racing, was out of my seat when they hit the line. Fairy tale stuff tbf. No better way to bow out.

I think he is going to still run in charity races which is great for a horse of that age who still wants to race.
