Three Grand National winners (West Tip, Mr Frisk, Seagram), a double second in the National (Durham Edition), a fourth in the National (Brown Windsor), two Gold Cup winners (The Thinker, Charter Party), a second in the Gold Cup (Yahoo), three horses fourth in a Gold Cup (West Tip again, Nupsala, Bonanza Boy). Bonanza Boy was also a dual Welsh National winner. Plus an Irish National winner (Perris Valley). I appear to have a certain 7lb called Mr Norman Williamson.

3 Grand National and 2 Gold Cup winners! If Dessie hadn't fallen at Liverpool a couple weeks before he'd have probably run here too, Such a shame we never see grade 1 horses in these big handicaps anymore!

A classy renewal featuring Mr Frisk, West Tip, Bonanza Boy, Seagram amongst others. Nupsala was a shock King George VI Chase winner at the expense of Desert Orchid in 1987.

Do you have the 1989 Bagshot Chase run at Ascot? Won by Headin On but Huntworth ran out when well clear and Sir Jest refused at the last when should have won at Huntworth's expense. Sam da Vinci who ran in the Whitbread was beaten in this race.

@@glynnevans1851 It usually was, but this year the race was run at 2.00pm and BBC coverage only started at 2.15pm, therefore it wasn't broadcast live.
