Adding to that he also equalled Sir Ken’s record of 16 straight wins, set between 1951 and ‘53. Indeed, Ruby Walsh is on record as saying the horse can make it 20 and who would argue with that now?

Big Buck’s was always on the pace, but there were times during the contest when you would not want to be with him.
