Barry Geraghty in the saddle would have loved this one
The bonanza of big races continues today with some massive contests on both sides of the Irish Sea. At Kempton, one of the biggest races of the day was the Desert Orchid Chase.
Named after the famous grey, it was won today by Henry De Bromhead’s Special Tiara and piloted by Meath man Barry Geraghty.
The official description of the result describes the winner’s jumping as ‘bold’ but we think this clip from the race shows just what phenomenal leaps the horse put in.
