Awesome Denman delivers in super style

DENMAN didn’t just beat Kauto Star in yesterday’s totesport Gold Cup at Cheltenham, he simply ran him ragged.

The superb eight-year-old, magnificently handled by Sam Thomas, broke Kauto Star’s spirit with an exhilarating exhibition of jumping and staying power.

In doing so, he proved himself one of the best winners of the Gold Cup in recent years. Indeed, those who believed he was the proverbial monster could not have been more right.
