One of the key factors in eking out sufficient improvement to make a performance difference in an old chaser is to try a change of headgear, and tonight, for Solar Impulse, a first time visor did the trick.
The veteran, who won at the Cheltenham Festival in 2016, was winning for the 8th time and on his 59th start this evening.
While the new headgear helped, the other factor is the jockey and credit should go to Charlie Todd for another fine ride.
