Best and certainly the most exciting horse I have ever seen. Miss him so much as there has never really been another chaser to capture the imagination of the public the way Dessie did.
Brilliant horse yes. One of the best. But when I watched Sprinter Sacre win the Champion Chase in 2013 I thought, mmm this might be the best horse I've seen since Arkle.
@@crackerjack5210 No he did not own him, kildimo was owned by Lady Harris and Desert Orchid was owned by Jim Burrage. Kildimo lived with a bad back problem felt he was never at his brilliant best.
no words can do Dessie justice. a complete one off

Sprinter Sacre ?
@@keithf_ Liked him too, but Dessie my all time favourite
Superb run, a lot of energy left in him and with his best jockey- won comfortably going left. Magnificent Dessie.
Best race horse ever !!! RIP DESSIE ❤️🥰

20/1 from Corals for the 1989 Gold Cup! Now he tells me!!!!
IF YOU WATCH DESSIE HE HAS A VERY HIGH CRUISING SPEED. HE'S FANTASTIC

Off the top of my head, Tingle Creek
Greatest grey ever
Ridiculous Talent !!!!
Kildimo, a horse that gave me plenty of crumpled up betting slips, I always thought he would win some big races, but alas it wasnt to be
A fine horse, but he had Dessie to contend with. Didn't the Hot Chocolate singer Errol Brown own him?
Good to see you kept going back for more.

No Lady Harris owned Kildimo@@mizofan
Yeah like me backed kildino a lot in that era
what a great horse
The Mildmay Course looked sharper then than it did after the changes for the 1990 meeting. Also they don't jump the water these days.
Muust have had some cruising speed.
Yes, imagine the thrill for a jockey !
Different animal class horse
Tom Taaffe is Pat's son, right?
Correct
