    Just watched the video.

    Hindsight is wonderful but CC must have been a bit of a certainty to have overcome his draw and come from stone last at one point on the first circuit to win going away from some clearly smart animals.

    Previous defeats when carrying my money all forgiven now!

    To be honest, I backed him because I'd have backed him in the Leger if he'd been eligible.

    A top top performance; imagine having to deal with him at Wolverhampton.... twice !
    Some horse to go to war with and a great result for team GB all told.
