The little known Tiger Roll won that day too iirc

That’s right he won the 4 miler that day at a massive price. BĂșveir dair and altior and apples jade all won the same day. An unrale day of racing

Those lads that owned laibaik all had 50s and 100s each way on tiger and laibaik. Think it was 50s and 33s on the morning.

Nearly sure tiger roll was 12s or summat. Had small bet on him solely based on triumph form as he’d shown little else. Lisa o neill riding him I think. Was a great days racing.

Fairly sure he was bigger in the morning. That was a mad Cheltenham. Presenting Percy whosed up in the pertemps and ruby gave yorkhill the mother of all rides to win the jlt.

Sp was 16s

Was singlefarmpayment in top three in that? Always ran well in that race.

Remember going back to Cheltenham town that night and there was a Cheverley park thing running in the last in Wolverhampton or somewhere. Load of lads from down Elliott’s way had tip for it and we all backed it in a ladbrokes and it won. Staff tried to shut down and not pay out till next day. There was a huge stand off until they relented and paid out before locking up. Great days

On up to Queens then and the lads marching like they’re pro gamblers. Necking £120 bottles of Champagne then in 21 Club to round the night off. Sweet Caroline playing and the roasters twirling their jackets around in the air making sure not to jump too high as they’ll hit their head off the low ceiling.
