Paul Nicholls’ superstar chaser was unable to reclaim the Cheltenham Gold Cup this year but nonetheless returned to the summit of the ratings, deposing Long Run.

Kauto Star’s mark of 180, two fewer than Long Run achieved 12 months ago following his Gold Cup victory, is 10lb shy of his own career-high rating in the 2009/10 season.
