Cheltenham Festival Day 4 - Gold Cup Chase

Behold the great GOLDEN MILLER (above) owned by the eccentric Dorothy Paget the first real female racehorse owner. He is a five - yeah I said FIVE - time winner of the Gold Cup in 1932, 1933, 1934, 1935 & 1936. He also won the Grand National in 1934 too. He had a total of 28 wins from 52 starts under NH rules.

Anyhoo it was a good day all round after a nice win & several places but it was Mini C who stole the show. Word has it he got lucky last night too so follow a man on fire!
