Jango Baie went up to the challenge of demanding an amazing renewal of ARKLE Challenge Tophy Novics’ Tast in Cheltehamham.
Nikki Henderson Gulf could not go with an early pace and found himself towards the back of the five small field with the development of the race.
At the top of the hill, the race between the conical pair of Magburo and L’au Du Sud looked, but Jango Baie never surrendered at the back of the package and was in the final steps to register at 1/5 under the leadership of Nico De Boinville, with Night three quarters of the second place.
Henderson was originally appointed to hold the favorite candidate in Sir Gino, but he saw his season briefly due to injury.
“Without walking Jino, this horse was three [miles] Or up to two; “We would have run, but he could not walk enough quickly. In fact he could not go quickly,” Henderson said.
“It was some ride! They were allowed to leave, and they went strongly, and it is a beautiful ground – it is a suitable, fast -jumping land and they were wandering.
“I have seen it before when they had surpassed it, I have always got the hill to get to your help if you needed it, I must admit that I never dreamed that he would need it, but the latter flew and just ran – I didn’t know it was quickly, I should admit.
“From the place where I was, I thought the time was too late. It was incredible, it was just their nomination. I had no idea about the result that I should say, I did the gods. I think you can take it from me this is the last time that you’ve sought two miles away!
“This was the fiftieth row of Niko. It is good to get it on the blackboard early and what is the way to do so, it was a great journey.”
In what was already in the afternoon of the emotional opening, the owner Tony Barney said: “I bought the horse on the day my son was killed, and his name was James Barney, and the horse is Jango Baie, the same first letters. My son looks at me.”

“I always thought I could get there, and I went down to the bottom of the hill I was just thinking about Barry (Geragati) when he installed a hero and did a similar type in RSA (2020) when he took himself out,” De Benfelle said.
“I could not go to Al -Khalef, but I knew that he would remain, so it was just a state of filling it and knowing if I could hill the hill. To be fair, he was wandering at the end of it and then flew over the hill.
“It is a great feeling when you know that you will reach there, but it raises anxiety when you go down with the neck or head, which is a lot.
Javin Cromwell took the last defeat only to the chin. He said: “I ran and jumped very well and thought for a few seconds we were at home and felt.
“We just passed late by facilities. I am happy that we have chosen the right race anyway, it is unfortunate not to win when you run well but we are happy.
“You always like to see them running well at the beginning of the week and keep confidence in good condition.”
“Although our horse was beaten and did not jump well, I thought it was an extraordinary race to watch it and I was pleased with Nikko and Saeed Likki,” said Willie Moulins.
“It was a wonderful journey from Niko on the winner, and our colleagues did not jump, and this is not the same, so it is disappointing. But committing the error he made in the second match and still occupies the third place, and this shows the type of engine he has.
“We had no concern about his jump at all, and I am surprised that he did it, but this could happen at the heat of the battle.
“It looks like this [Gold Cup] The type of horse, and I know that it has the engine to do this, we just have to get jumping on the right and staying my voice. “
Harry Siesson, wearing a black eye and stitches after he was kicked before a dowry, added from L’A du sud, who was trained by his brother, Dan:
“He was beaten with a length and a half and somehow ended in fourth place. It runs well.”
