Bookies Reaction To Champion Chase Result
Brian O’Keeffe, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said:
"What a dramatic Champion Chase! Never did we imagine that El Fabiolo, who went off the shortest-priced horse of the meeting, would have been pulled up. But what a result for Henry de Bromhead and Rachael Blackmore with Captain Guinness romping home and finally giving the trading floor a reason to raise their glasses!
