Cross Country Chase 2019

He’s a horse of a life time. 4 timer and. Back to back!! Coming soon! At least they won’t need too much bronze for when they build his statue...

Love this Tigerroll !!!,:highly_amused::triumphant:

He should have qualified for pertemps and gone for that, looking at yesterday.
Off a mark of near 140 he'd have hacked up
Four festivals and four different races would have been good.
Still no where near a six timer though.

He's only 9 - plenty time for the 7 timer.....

"We've had this brainwave this week that we might run him in the cross-country chase," said Tizzard.

"It seemed a good prep race for the National for one of the others (winner Tiger Roll) last year!

"We ran him at Cheltenham the last two or three years - and although he hasn't won, he has done quite well, and it has been a good prep for Aintree.

"He is in the Ultima, but he will be put in the cross country. We will school him, but I just think he will have a better chance of winning the cross-country than he would the Ultima.

"Then we will run him in the Grand National. He is in the Topham - but if he gets in, he will go for the National."

Another of which is potentially sending Vision Des Flos to the Champion Hurdle instead of the Coral Cup. One mans brainwave is another mans brainfart apparently :highly_amused:
