Superb compilation with some wonderful old horses.

[@HorseRacingLegends]

Thank you so much.

[@lawriecairns]

Fantastic. The early 70's were the halcyon days of racing for me. The hurdlers you showcased and the jumpers, Pendil, Tingle Creek, L'escargot to name a couple. Brigadier Gerard, Mill Reef, Nijinsky, Roberto to name a few on the flat. Loved every minute of it.

[@HorseRacingLegends]

[@davidpearson6785]

Some wonderful memories , always appreciate these uploads thank you , hard to pick a favourite isn't it, too many greats, but I have to say, constitution hill is the best I have seen in my lifetime , just the speed he takes a hurdle is breathtaking

[@HorseRacingLegends]

Yes he is excellent at the Hurdles.

[@markgidley7089]

The great clashes at Cheltenham and Kempton between Birds Nest and Celtic Ryde are some of my favourite 2M Hurdle memories

[@HorseRacingLegends]

Yes always close.

[@robertcairney2955]

Morley street is my favourite 2 miler

[@HorseRacingLegends]

He never won The Bula Hurdle but a Great Horse.

[@leecash9767]

That win in the Aintree Hurdle when he floored his full brother is one of my all time favourites. At that point, I'd just about given up on him. What a ride by Bradley.

[@HorseRacingLegends]

@leecash9767 Yes that was a very Cheeky win.

[@leecash9767]

I watched many of these great races 'in the flesh' (I still refer to it as 'the Bula' & I will probably insist on replacing 'Trials Day' with 'Bula Day'. Anyway, this afternoon I had a look at some of the racecards from previous renewals of the race. From 2006 - 2008, the Bula was worth £114, 040 to the winner. In 2009 and 2010 winning connections received £85,515. How much do you think Michael Buckley will pocket on Saturday? £71,118! And, people wonder why so few decent middle distance horses on the flat are sent hurdling.

[@HorseRacingLegends]

Yes it has dropped for sure.Dint know what the answer is.

@@HorseRacingLegends Nigel Twiston Davies complained back in 2010(ish) that the Jockey Club was using revenue from jumps racing (Cheltenham in particular) to subsidise Newmarket & Epsom. Around that time, the crowd at Cheltenham's October meeting was double that of Newmarket on the same weekend (I'm sure it was the 2-day Ceserawitch). Perhaps Grd1s over jumps should have a minimum prize of £100,000 , & Grd2s £80,000 ? Anything less & they become Grd3 Handicaps?

@leecash9767 Yes I’m sure NTD was right in what he said.Big Mac always had some good ideas before He was brutally sacked by CH4 Racing.
