Galopin Des Champs is the favourite with A Plus Tard his closest rival.

Davy Russell is another jockey who’s stepped down from the race. Sam Ewing will ride Conflated instead.

“Today I am lucky to have chances in early races ahead of the big one, but you have made your team selection, given your team talk and you just let them get on with on with it.

“You have to try to enjoy these days and I know there is nothing more I can do.

“The owners (which includes Sir Alex Ferguson) know they have a big chance, but they know it is sport and anything can happen but pressure is a privilege.”

Here’s Harry Cobden riding Stay Away Fay to victory in the Albert Bartlett:

Jockey Mark Walsh who just suffered the fall with Corbetts Cross stands down from the Gold Cup. He’s replaced with Nico de Boinville who will ride Minella Indo.

Winning trainer Paul Nicholls, speaking ITV Racing: “He looks fantastic. He ran how he looked. He jumped really well. There’s lots of improvement to come from him.

“Having had two winners now I am dead relaxed. It makes such a difference.”

Winning jockey Harry Cobden, speaking to ITV Racing: “I could hear what happened behind me. My horse is very inexperienced, he’s very green but he got his head down.

“This horse stays forever. Great for the boss.”

Next up is the big one. Not just today but for the whole week. The Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Rachael Blackmore famously won this race last year with A Plus Tard and returns to try and recover her title but she’ll face strong competition this year.

Corbetts Cross spotted a gap and tried to dart around the final hurdle. He clattered into the plastic covering which sent jockey Mark Walsh to the deck.

Walsh is up on his feet but looks a bit shaken. The horse seems okay too.

2. Affordale Fury – 150/1

4. Letsbeclearaboutit – 16/1

Drama right at the end but it’s Stay Away Fay who flies down the final straight to next the victory. Harry Cobden and Paul Nicholls get another win at Cheltenham!
