  • Have searched high and wide for the answer to this but can't seem to find anything conclusive, maybe someone here can help...

    Does anyone know the shortest priced horse to get beat at the Festival? I know Defi du Seuil had an SP of 2/5 when he was fourth in the Champion Chase but perhaps there's another who went off even shorter..

      • Douvan was 2/9 when he lost in the CC

        However it winds me up how people forget to mention he fractured his hip and act like he just flopped as if it is a minor detail

        • ….Dan Skelton stable tour;

          Team Skelton have enjoyed notable successes in the handicaps where they have a typically strong squad, but the ace in the pack is star novice chaser Grey Dawning

          • How about the shortest price winner?

            Altior 1/4 in the Arkle springs to mind. Anything shorter than that?

              Just googled and Arkle was 1/10. That wasn’t much fun.

                                Did anyone tip Politilogue that year at 25/1?
























                                and before you bother, tip is a strong word for 'hedge NRNB'
