That’s it for another year. That’s 28 races done, just about all high quality as the people came back to Cheltenham. Some big stories, some fantastic rides, some great weather, some very bad weather but, and like last year, and despite the dominance of Willie Mullins, it’s Rachael Blackmore who rules again. A perfect ride on A Plus Tard to take the Gold Cup and write herself further into history.
