What a racehorse.
Thistlecrack looked more or less invincible in the golden spell of his career from the start of the 2015/16 campaign, racking up a winning spree of nine consective victories concluding with this splendid King George VI Chase triumph for Tom Scudamore, Colin Tizzard and John and Heather Snook in the midwinter showpiece at Kempton Park.
