IF YOU COULD HAVE A RACE AGAIN, WOULD IT BE ANNIE POWER IN THE 2015 MARES’ HURDLE?

-

(The 4-7 favourite fell at the last to deny Walsh and trainer Willie Mullins an opening four-timer) YOU ask me do I want to ride one again. Annie Power? No. What could I do about that? Horses jump or fall. If I could ride one horse at Cheltenham again, it would be Commanche Court after his second in the 2002 Gold Cup. Off the final bend, I went to join See More Business but Commanche Court made a mistake at the second last fence while Best Mate got a run on the inside. He’s the one I’d like to ride again. My dad Ted trained him and it was the Gold Cup. Tactically, when you do something wrong, that grates.
