Foxhunter Steeple Chase Results

Albert Bartlett Novices Hurdle

Next up after the Gold Cup was the Foxhunters Chase over the same course and distance with the amateur riders getting their chance at a big win, and it is the biggest race of the season for these horses and jockeys. The one being backed before the off was Baby Run who of course won the race last year and as usual he was more than happy to lead them out and he set a nice gallop.

Baby Run was still leading them as they went onto the final circuit and the field were well stung out with five of them clear of the main pack as the strong pace continued. At the top of the hill it was Baby Run and Dantes Storm who were clear of the field and looked set to fight out the result between each other with Zemsky also looking dangerous. Baby Run was leading at the second last but he unseated his rider to gasps from the crown to leave Zemsky as the clear winner after Dantes Storm had faded away. Baby Run ran a blinder and it would have been a great duel if he had stayed upright but in the end it was Zemsky who claimed a deserved win.
