Incredible performance against a field of high class hurdlers. Outstanding jumping and speed. Simply too good. Amazing to think this was his final victory. Fantastic champion!!

Why was Theatreworld always so underrated? Why did his jockey always leave it too late?

Make A Stand was not a great champion hurdler. His rating would probably not be within a stone of the great Night Nurse. However he is the fastest most accurate enthusiastic jumper of a hurdle ever. He should be remembered for that. His champion hurdle was won by his brilliant hurdling. His win in the Tote Gold Trophy with top weight was amazing. He had the race won by the second hurdle.

Wow, what memories of a great racehorse. I lived near Cheltenham at the time and a stable lad to Norman Babbage, gave us the nod about Make a Stand. We watched him win thru the 1996/97 season and had a few more quid on him (ante post) for the Champion Hurdle each time, 33/1, 25/1, 16/1 etc. I cannot believe still, that the other jockeys let him run his own race, he only ran one way - lead from the off and catch me if you can!! I had the holiday of a lifetime in 1997 thanks to him. Such a shame he broke down afterwards and was never the same when he came back. Great horse, great memories.

he won so many races before the champion hurdle from the front, and they still had a nerve to have him a 7/1 might not of been the right races to be favourite but the manner of his lanzarote, and tote gold trophy before hand that he was something SPECIAL. easiest champion hurdle winner for me ever at 20/1 ante post after tote gold trophy
