Watch the race in full as Coneygree becomes the first novice to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup in 41 years after making nearly all the running under Nico De Boinville. As in his previous starts over fences, the horse put up a superb display of jumping and remorseless galloping to beat a big field of talented rivals.

Great round of jumping and great ride by Nico. Put all those Mullins sympathisers in their place.

Love rewatching this race!

@TheRealColt 6 лет назад

Best race I've ever watched

@larsson02sco 2 года назад

Don't know why i'm back to watching this today but still my favourite winner of the Gold Cup, talked him up for months that he would do it and what a race it was! £20 on him at 33's antepost, still one of my most satisfying wins

@SarahJones-wy5us 5 лет назад

Incase any of the Bradstocks ever read this after the great tragedy of novice Gloria Victis in the Gold cup I personally feel it took a lot of courage to enter Conegree for the same race and what a wonderful precious race he ran ,today he has retired and I wish him a comfortable retirement,and to thank Lord Oaksey for breeding him and letting the racing world enjoy his front running gusto! Thank-you all concerned..above all thank-you Coneygree.

@ashton235 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for writing this. Undoubtedly if you listen to from 2 out Gloria Victis was referenced. That's how much that tragedy hurt us. I moved to Australia in 2009 so have lost touch with NH racing. Watching this race again the similarities of the 2 horses and indeed the 2 races made me nervous and at the edge of panic.

@ashton235 7 месяцев назад

Was GV ever referenced during the build up? Looking at the comments below a suspect not. You are the only person to mention GV.

Just watched this again! Magnificent! Very sad to hear Mark Bradstock has passed. Thank you for this very special win ! Our thoughts are with the Bradstocks in little Lettcombe Basset !

I backed Many Clouds! I was shouting for Coneygree from 4 fences out! Wonderful result! So deserved! Better than flat racing!!!!!!

@Chalky29 9 лет назад

Brilliant. Just brilliant. Ran the race out of them. Sensational performance

@Hen71557 9 лет назад

Fabulous front running performance, he might be a novice but at 8 he's no baby, physically ready for a GC & proved it today by galloping & jumping them ragged, great ride from Nico, no messing just let the horse do his thing & proved they made the right decision going for this instead of the RSA on ground that prob wouldn't have suited..set a V decent time in that ground too, best GC performance in a few years IMO...

@uhegbu 6 лет назад

In a race containing previous winners Bobs Worth and Lord Windermere, Coneygree took the brave decision to lead from the front and prevail. Many Clouds became the latest Gold Cup participant to win the Grand National since Rough Quest in 1996. Hedgehunter finished second in 2006 to War Of Attrition. The former had already won the Aintree showpiece and came close to achieving the double.

@goingbehind1093 3 года назад

The best winner of the decade. No question. What a shame his problems meant he never got the chance to dominate the division for years to come.

@SuburbanSteve 9 лет назад

Absolutely fantastic, what a horse he is, I have had every confidence in him for weeks, backed him at 14s,12s, 10s and again this morning at 9s, ran some bloody good horses ragged, one of the best Gold Cup performances I've ever seen, he WILL NOT be passed😊

@darrenfair1734 2 года назад

@keithf_ 2 года назад

I backed him that day. Several things I'd completely forgotten about the race. 1) Coneygree was a novice 2) Ridden by Nico de Boinville 3) What a fantastic performance by the horse. Jumped from fence to fence. Thanks very much for posting

@leesog3203 9 лет назад

One of the best performances I've ever seen. It's awesome for Boinville after losing Rolling Star earlier in the week. A bitter-sweet week for him. Everything Cheltenham is. I can see why Mullins wanted Don Poli in the 4-miler now.. to entice Coneygree in the RSA... so Djakadam could take the glory.. but as a 6 y/o, barring injuries, he has awesome days ahead of him too, no doubt.. As for Conti ruining my accumulators.. #Sickbagconti #FlatTrackBully

@davidreid4620 9 лет назад

someones been listening to the final furlong podcast !

@leesog3203 9 лет назад

David Reid Word up.. You have to respect them after so many of their predictions came to pass, especially with Windsor Park and Conti.. I had WP at 9/1 thanks to them, but many months ago I foolishly through Conti in all my mullins accumulators and was waitin on some heavy paydays.. but I still kept the faith with him, even at 3 out, until I finally understood the hard way, what sickbag-conti was all about.. damn...

@cmcg3738 8 лет назад

+Lee SOG The sickbag-Conti shout from the Final Furlong podcast was about Silviniaco Conti going well until he reached the hill then failing through a lack of stamina to get up it. -He fell 3 out in the 2013 Gold Cup (no proof there) -In the 2014 Gold Cup he stayed on up the hill better than Bobs Worth, who won it the previous year. (proof they are wrong) He just went too quick which meant he got collared by the closers very close to home. Non stayers don't tend to get beat by 1 3/4 lengths in a Gold Cup. -Using the 2015 Gold Cup as proof the Final Furlong team were right about him is ridiculous because he never traveled to the bottom of the hill - he was well cooked and done for at the top of Cleeve Hill, long before turning for home. He wouldn't have won at any distance on the day. (So again, no proof they were right) Lets not also forget Emmet Kennedy et al were saying what a joke and a disgrace it was that the Bradstock's decided to run Coneygree, a novice, in the Gold Cup. "He should be running in the RSA and that is that - it's madness altogether." And what happened? Made prize wankers out of themselves. Funny how they don't want to talk about that, or so many of their listeners have selective amnesia about that, isn't it? The 2015 Gold Cup and Coneygree in particular proved FFP wrong more than it proved them right.

@bosh8999 3 года назад

I seriously don’t think I’ll ever witness a better run than this! Absolute magic

@stationofdreams8242 9 лет назад

Well this was as good a performance as you would want to see from a Gold Cup winner. He made all, jumped from fence to fence without making any mistake and stayed on nicely to the finish when put under pressure at the end. There are other good horses coming through too, but if this one can maintain his form then he would still take some beating if he came back again next time because he see's it out so well. Plus he will have a bit more experience. Not that he needed it today. He knew his job and he did it to perfection. Very well done Coneygree and connections for having a go with such an inexperienced horse.

@tootsie323 9 лет назад

I won an absolute fortune that day. I will always be grateful to Mark Bradstock and NICo de for the best day ever and in my opinion the best chaser ever. But for injury this is the best chaser ever

@redshankful 9 лет назад

Great front running performance. A tonic that it wasn't a big stable (or W Mullins!) Jockey got him into a nice rhythm all the way. Some really neat quick jumps and hung on bravely up the hill in tiring ground. Hope he comes out of the race ok. I would hope they skip Aintree as it always comes too soon. Possible National horse when he gets too old for the Gold Cup.

@herzwatithink9289 9 лет назад

Apparently Djackadam only traded at a low of 4 in running on Betfair. Seems hard for me to believe, but then there's a reason I don't play after the off in racing. Well done to the winner, a really exuberant performance.

@notwkrail 9 лет назад

Great performance destroyed them from the front, put last years GP into perspective[a gold cup seller] all being well Coneygree Vatour and Don Poli next year. Everybody thought Longrun was a shoe in because he beat Denman and Kauto Star. I dont believe punters understand what Best Mate achieved Golden Miller Cottage Rake and Arkle. Still the best for me was L'Escargot,two gold cups and a Grand national beating Red Rum when they were still fences.

@MrLimbking 9 лет назад

We'll see what happens with the Mullins challengers next year but this really is some win - a thystes winner, Galway plate and Lexus winner, king George, betfair chase and Betfred bowl winner, Henessey and now grand national winner, not to mention the 2 previous gold cup winners and last years 2nd and 3rd all galloped into submission - stunning performance from the best horse in training!

@bristollad6108 9 лет назад

@MrLimbking 8 лет назад

+Jason Williams good call! I had come round to your way of thinking after the punchestown gold cup and the way he was still thereabouts in the King George! Think he probably would've beaten Coneygree too!

@Cehagsy 9 лет назад

I'm sure I'm not the only one who got a bit nervy as he started veering to the right after final fence! Fantastic finish though.

@albertneville8918 9 лет назад

Me too! I was absolutely bricking it. I wore a heart monitor just to see what the old ticker would get up to. 175 beats per minute! To compare it was 181 during the very last stroke of a 10km row I did the night before!

@julzyboy1973 8 лет назад

There are no certs at all. This race is very open for 2016. Unusual not to have a previous winner in the field. Shame Coneygree will miss the race. Road to Riches has been prepared differently this campaign. If Djakadam gets round he will be his main danger imo Don Poli will also be bang with them too.

@barondefypo 9 лет назад

"Come and get me" if you think your good enough, and the truth was they wasn't. Coneygree had some quality top horses out of their comfort zones some way back and one by one they cracked. The old guard what had performed at Cheltenham before were all just swept away by the new stars. What a breath of fresh air........

@anthonycraig2471 9 лет назад

Exactly, No hanging back for a big finish, he broke every horse in the race. Fantastic performance. I just wish i had upped my stake from 50 to 100 :-)

@lukemccann 6 лет назад

Luke McCann it’s a bit hard to watch though. You can see how the Gold Cup typically breaks its victors. Never the same again. Don Cossack, Long Run, Lord Windermere, Imperial Commander, Sunchronised, Bobs Worth, the list goes on...

@80scp 9 лет назад

i backed it and took 10-1 the night before, I knew no novice had won it for a number ov years, but knew he wud relish the trip and ground, and gave a masterclass and jumped them ragged, will be very hard to beat next year... and still a young horse at 6, big big future chasing

well I tell ya one thing lad's I backed this little Dinger of a horse and what a show of jumping, race riding from horse and jockey put them all to the sword.. absolutely love this horseI knew from the second circut it was gonna take really good horse to get him, tears in my eyes the last horse to do that was Denman in his 2 hennesseys,and his gold cup, brave as lions, really brings emotions to a different level when you see Man and Horse combine to bring joy and excitement to the masses. the cheek of the so called pundits to say a novice would have no chance, just goes to show lads and lassie's always believe with your eyes not what someone is telling you, and you will do ok.. can't wait till next year! like can it get better than this years metting, cause it was quality racing for the 4 days.. 2 months left and then its flat racing till october ah well! get on JFK for the Derby he won't be 6/1 bet you he starts 13/8 or less! l8rs my fellow Punters, horse lovers and all round good peoples. the Lazla has spoken
