Thanks++ for this, never thought the footage would still be available. Pendil was a superstar, used to hammer Tingle Creek around Sandown!! Would love to see his King George vs Captain Christy
Could you kindly kindly post the 1975 king george one of the great races won by the legendary Captain Christy. Would also love to see the 1976, 1977 and 1978 editions of this great steeplechase. Thanks very much

This is when fences were fences courses like Kempton ,Wetherby , Aintree and even Sandown you had to jump them and not brush through them proper jumping
Absolutely loving these old races, brings back so many memories.
Ron Barry was the one jockey who could ride the Dikler to his full capacity

Actually seen pendil make a jumping mistake there,must have been a one off. Him and Wayward Lad best jumpers I’ve ever seen.
@@gerrymcguire7382 I don't recall him making another, he was so nimble and athletic

this was when jump racing was jump racing because they didn't have so many jump-back races, not even summer jump racing

Happy Days. Anyone know where I can view Spanish Steps beating Khan in the SGB at Ascot?
They had the artificial "horse hoof" sound even back in 1972 😁
Anybody know when they got rid of the water jump at Kempton.
When the AW track was constructed.

Pendil was virtually unbeatable at Kempton
Halcyon Days for Racing!
In terms of horse names the BHA would not allow a horse to be called Dimwit today
Loose horses that keep jumping such a pain.
WHAT WERE THE SP PLEASE.
