Ten years after I saddled Bulwark to land this historic race for the Doctor, Magic Circle under Fran Berry won this prestigious marathon handicap on the Roodee.
After being bought at the Newmarkett HIT Sale last autumn, the Chester Cup was the plan …
Held up in mid-div off the a strong pace, Fran Berry moved his mount up to challenge off the home turn, and then he sprinted clear to win by SIX lengths.
The way he won the Cup, I’m sure he can go onto better things, especially as he is possibly better suited by more juice in the ground.
