Galopin Des Champs had been going for an incredible hat-trick, only to be denied by Inothewayurthinkin’s brilliant run.

After the race, JP McManus‘ victorious horse was seen to by veterinary staff.

With Walsh still aboard, a vet checking on Inothewayurthinkin’s back legs was sent flying by a brutal kick.

The vet thankfully did not appear to be seriously hurt.

After his horse’s victory, McManus admitted that he will consult trainer Gavin Cromwell before making a decision on whether he will compete in the Grand National at Aintree on April 5.

He said: “We have to be fair to the horse. The Gold Cup is a tough race.

“I’ll see what Gavin says but don’t expect a decision in the next week.”

On today’s triumph, Cromwell added: “Galopin Des Champs was a dual Gold Cup winner, but we were coming here to try and win the race.

“We weren’t ­coming to pick up the pieces and get place money.”

On the National, he added: “I think we’ll all catch our breath and get the horse home, and we’ll be having the conversation later on, but I suppose you certainly can’t rule it out and it is tempting. It’s certainly something to think about.”


Unfortunately, today’s Gold Cup was a bittersweet one for McManus.

While Inothewayurthinkin produced an amazing upset win, the Irishman’s other runner Corbetts Cross tragically died after suffering fatal injuries in a fall.

A Cheltenham statement read: “In our fifth race of the day, Corbett’s Cross was immediately attended to by our veterinary professionals, but sadly sustained a fatal injury.

“Our heartfelt condolences are with his connections.”
