Thanks for uploading this, first time I've seen it posted on KZbin. One of Greville's great rides and when Kalaglow finally proved himself a champion, beating a top class field.

Kalaglow was my dads horse, raised by the best man i know

Kalaglow was a top-of-the-ground horse with leg problems, never a great combination. He was, however, a very tough and classy colt. This is a good post, the only other versions of this footage have been very dark and muddy. Here you can see everything including the slightly weird doppelganger effect of the near identical brothers Bikala and Assert racing upsides each other on the home turn.
