Best Cheltenham Races

I always remember watching on television the great Fred Winter guide home the tough Mandarin in the 1962 Gold Cup. In all my years of watching racing, it was one of the calmest and most clinical displays of jockeyship in that Fred kept the horse to the inside all the way and then just pulled him out to win.

It would be interesting to know how Fred Winter would have competed today against Tony McCoy.
