Long Run

Confirmed his promise when taking Kauto Star's crown at Kempton when landing the 2011 King George and then confounded the trends followers by winning the Gold Cup at just six-years-old. A massive talent.

Denman

Put in a power packed display to win the 2008 Gold Cup where he demonstrated a faultless round of jumping that completely devastatated his rivals. As good a performance in a Gold Cup as we are ever likely to see.

Since his 2008 win Denman has finished runner-up in the three subsequent Gold Cups and must be one of the bravest horses to run in recent years.

Kauto Star

Four time winner of the King George at Kempton and became the first horse to regain the Cheltenham Gold Cup after victories in 2007 and 2009.

Must be hailed as one of the greatest National Hunt horses of all time.

Quito De La Roque

Young horse with bags of potential and is on a winning roll. Won at the Aintree and Punchestown festivals and came back to the new season with a win at Down Royal. Yet to race at Cheltenham though.
