CHELTENHAM RACECOURSE MEDIA RELEASE

for immediate release, Friday, March 22, 2013

THE FESTIVAL 2013 – ALL THE STATISTICS

The Festival is now over for another year and this final pack contains a whole host of updated statistics for owners, trainers and jockeys at the four-day meeting. A list of all the winners at The Festival 2013 is also included and there are factfiles for three of the week’s Grade One winners – Hurricane Fly (Stan James Champion Hurdle), Sprinter Sacre (Sportingbet Queen Mother Champion Chase) and Bobs Worth (Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup). Total attendance at The Festival this year came to 235,125 with record crowds on the first three days (since The Festival went to four days in 2005). The reduction in the crowd on Gold Cup Day (67,570) was due to the racecourse limiting the number of tickets available in order to increase comfort for racegoers on what is always the busiest day of The Festival. The Festival in 2014 takes place from Tuesday, March 11 to Friday, March 14 inclusive. Cheltenham’s current season is not yet over. The April Meeting takes place on Wednesday and Thursday, April 17 and 18, while the curtain comes down with the Hunter Chase Evening on Wednesday, May 1.

For further information, please contact Andy Clifton, Cheltenham Racecourse’s Communications Manager, on 07876 330090 or e-mail

Cheltenham Festival 2013 - BHA Handicappers' Comments

David Dickinson on the William Hill Supreme Novices' Hurdle: "Not only is Champagne Fever - on a provisional mark of 158 - the highest rated winner of the William Hill Supreme Novices' Hurdle in the last 10 years, the second home My Tent Or Yours, in running to 156, is also rated higher than all of those previous winners. Jezki, who finished third, is provisionally rated as high as the 2011 winner Al Ferof." John de Moraville on the Racing Post Arkle Chase: "Simonsig extended his unbeaten record over fences by landing the odds in the Racing Post Arkle, recording a preliminary rating of 165. Runner-up Baily Green (162) ran the race of his life in second place with His Excellency (third) confirming his mark in the low 150s." David Dickinson on the Stan James Champion Hurdle: "Hurricane Fly became the first horse since Comedy Of Errors to regain the Stan James Champion Hurdle when avenging last year's defeat by Rock on Ruby. In doing so he has provisionally replicated the 173 rating he achieved when winning the race in 2011." John de Moraville on the Sportingbet Queen Mother Champion Chase: "Sprinter Sacre put up the best two-mile Chase performance in the history of the Anglo-Irish Jump Classifications, bolting up in the Sportingbet Queen Mother Champion Chase by 19 lengths, earning a mark of 188. This is 2lb higher than the 186 recorded by Master Minded with his stunning victory in the same race five years ago. "Unbeaten now in his eight steeple chases and yet to be fully extended, who is to say the seven-year-old won't go on to better the highest rated horse in the history of the Classifications in Kauto Star and his rating of 190?” Martin Greenwood on the Neptune Investment Management Novices' Hurdle: "The New One confirmed himself top staying novice with an authoritative performance and initial indications suggest he will be rated 155. The way the race was run suited his style and allowed him to use his basic speed which he has in abundance, and the jockey benefited from the knowledge he gained in the last race at Cheltenham. "Some might say the disappointment of the race was Pont Alexandre. Maybe he needs a stiffer test at the trip, and/or softer ground. In my opinion he will still make a cracking novice chaser next year.” Martin Greenwood on the Ladbrokes World Hurdle: "A standard renewal of the World Hurdle saw Solwhit returning to the form of a few years ago after a long lay off, and it is hard to say what he has achieved just yet. Celestial Halo and Smad Place have run their races while Reve De Sivola and Oscar Whisky both disappointed." Martin Greenwood on Thursday's Handicap winners: "Holywell has been put up 21lb over the course of the season after three second place finishes, while Medinas had risen 15lb this season after being placed twice and winning before yesterday's race. It just goes to show that it is possible to advance in the weights without winning and still go on to win a race at the festival." David Dickinson on the JCB Triumph Hurdle: "The performance of Our Conor was mightily impressive and his rating will reflect that. I have provisionally placed him on a mark of 160, which makes him the highest rated Triumph winner since the Anglo-Irish Classifications began, 1lb ahead of Katchit.” Phil Smith on the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup: "I evaluated the race through The Giant Bolster who has run to 164 on a number of occasions and seems to have reproduced that form. Long Run has beaten him by six lengths so we have him on 170. Sir Des Champs was a further three lengths in front so he is rated 173 and then the seven lengths to the winner Bobs Worth means he is rated 180. "This makes him the fourth highest rated three-mile chaser since the Anglo-Irish Classifications began, behind only Kauto Star, Denman and Imperial Commander. "If you are going to have a course specialist, Cheltenham is not a bad place to have it! The race also confirms that the best pre-festival form this year was the Hennessy Gold Cup when Bobs Worth beat Tidal Bay and First Lieutenant."

Stan James Champion Hurdle winner - HURRICANE FLY (IRE) 9 b g Montjeu (IRE) - Scandisk (IRE) (Kenmare (FR))

Jump Form: 11211/131/1111/1131-1111 Owner: George Creighton and Mrs Rose Boyd Trainer: Willie Mullins IRE Breeder: Agricola Del Parco Jockey: Ruby Walsh Hurricane Fly Although bred in Ireland, Hurricane Fly began his racing career in France after selling for 65,000 euros as a yearling at Goffs to trainer Jean-Luc Pelletan. The son of Montjeu proved a classy Flat performer, having been placed on three starts as a two-year-old before stepping up a level the following year. He won his first two outings of his three-year-old campaign, the second of them when beating subsequent Group One winner Literato in a Saint-Cloud Listed race and went on to finish fourth to French Derby winner Lawman in a Group Three at Chantilly. He finished last on his final two Flat starts but had been schooled over hurdles by Pelletan since the age of two and was bought in late 2008 by bloodstock agent Richard Hobson to send to Willie Mullins. Hurricane Fly has been a revelation over hurdles since winning on his debut at Punchestown in May, 2008. He went to Auteuil to win a Grade Three Hurdle later that month and won the first of 15 Grade One victories to date in the Royal Bond Novice Hurdle at Fairyhouse in November, 2008. A 10-length success in Leopardstown’s Future Champion Novice Hurdle was followed by a seven-length victory in the Evening Herald Champion Novice Hurdle at the 2009 Punchestown Festival. After being beaten on his debut in the 2009/10 season, he had only one more start when returning from a five-month lay-off to win the Rabobank Champion Hurdle at the 2010 Punchestown Festival. The 2010/11 season brought victories in the Hatton’s Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse and both the Festival Hurdle and Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown before he travelled over to Britain for the first time to contest the Stan James Champion Hurdle at the 2011 Festival. He effortlessly saw off Peddlers Cross and bowed out for the season in front of a home crowd in the Rabobank Champion Hurdle when justifying odds-on favouritism with a five-length defeat of stablemate Thousand Stars. He beat Oscars Well by six and a half lengths in the 2012 Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown before finishing third, when sent off 4/6 favourite, in last season’s Stan James Champion Hurdle. He rounded off the season when seeing off three rivals in the Rabobank Champion Hurdle at Punchestown. He is four from four this season, winning the Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown in November, the Istabraq Festival Hurdle at Leopardstown in December and another Irish Champion Hurdle in January. He won his second Stan James Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham in good style on Tuesday, March 12, 2013, becoming only the second horses to regain his crown in the two-mile hurdling championship race - Comedy Of Errors was the first to do this in 1975.

Creighton’s son Andrew is a successful property developer in Northern Ireland, often in partnership with Frank Boyd, whose wife Rose is Hurricane Fly’s co-owner. The Boyds are based at the Rademon estate at Crossgar in County Down. Frank Boyd described the 2011 Stan James Champion Hurdle success as “the best day of my life”. Rose Boyd breeds both thoroughbreds and hunters at home, where they also stage a cross-country event, and she is joint-master of the local Killultagh Hunt. Away from Hurricane Fly, the best horse owned by the Creightons and Boyds has been the late C’est Ca, a useful hurdler and chaser with Mullins. Andrew Creighton was valued at £67 million in the 2012 Sunday Times Rich List and Frank Boyd at £60 million. The pair are partners in Belfast-based William Ewart Properties.

In 2011, he trained the brilliant Hurricane Fly to win the Stan James Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and regained the hurdling crown with the same horse in 2013. He was leading trainer with five victories at the 2013 Cheltenham Festival, where he has been successful 29 times - the best record of any Irish trainer ever after overtaking Tom Dreaper’s 26 wins. He won The Irish Independent Award as the top Festival trainer for the first time in 2011 with four victories. He captured the 2005 Grand National with Hedgehunter. Mullins has over 150 horses at his Closutton yard near Bagenalstown in County Carlow and has been champion Irish jump trainer for the past five seasons. He is set for a sixth title and has already broken the previous record of 155 winners in a season set by Aidan O’Brien in 1995/96.

Bobs Worth’s jockey Barry Geraghty bought the son of Bob Back for 16,500 euros as a yearling at Tattersalls Ireland in November, 2006, but, having failed to resell him as a three-year-old at Goffs in June, 2008, got £20,000 for him the following May at Doncaster. David Minton of Highflyer Bloodstock bought the then four-year-old to join Nicky Henderson. Geraghty reflected: “We were a bit disappointed and had hoped for more. It was just the economic times we were in. Anyway, it has worked out very well for me in the end, I just had to wait a bit to get my bonus now from riding him!” The gelding made his debut in a National Hunt Flat race at Kempton in February, 2010 and finished second. He progressed to win a similar race at the same course on April 9. The following season, he won all four of his novice hurdles, including when beating future Stan James Champion Hurdle victor Rock On Ruby at Cheltenham in January, 2011. He is unbeaten in five starts at Cheltenham and has enjoyed three successes at The Festival - in the 2011 Grade One Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle, the 2012 Grade One RSA Chase and the 2013 Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup. There were two defeats as a novice chaser but he has been victorious in his other four chases, including his debut success over fences at Newbury in November, 2011 when he narrowly defeated Cue Card, who is a now a dual winner at The Festival. He annexed the Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup on his seasonal reappearance at Newbury on December 1, when he carried 11st 6lb to beat Tidal Bay by three and a quarter lengths before reappearing in the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup on March 15, when he stayed on strongly to beat Sir Des Champs and stable companion Long Run by seven lengths and two and three quarter lengths. He was the first horse since Flyingbolt, between 1964 and 1966, to win three different races at The Festival in consecutive years.
