Jamie Codd secured his fourth victory in the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup with a facile 12 length success aboard Cause Of Causes for Gordon Elliott and J P McManus. The well-backed 9/2 shot was held up throughout and looked out of contention four fences from home. However, coming down the hill, the son of Dynaformer stayed on very strongly and quickened clear at the second last to win easily.

Codd and Cause Of Causes were successful together in the National Hunt Chase at last year's Festival and the jockey was delighted to have won another Festival race with the eight-year-old. He said: "Cause Of Causes won the National Hunt Chase last year and has been a great horse for me. Gordon Elliott has brought him back to this race in top form. I have been riding him out for the last three weeks and he has really come to form. He loves the spring and the sun on his back. I am grateful to J P McManus and Gordon Elliott. They are a brilliant bunch of people and it is great for me to be involved.

"This horse's biggest asset is he is Flat-bred and has a lot of speed but also stays very well. I didn't want to be that far back and he takes a long time to warm up. He is not a very big horse but he is very economical over his fences and once you get him into a rhythm popping over them, he always comes home for you, well he has for me thankfully anyway.

"It was not a straightforward race, I wanted to get him into a rhythm but I was never happy the whole way. I was hoping they had gone too quick as he is not the sort of horse you can ask to make big jumps so I was trying to get him to the top of the hill on the bridle. Coming down the hill, he then came alive and started to pass horses. Once I passed one, I passed another six or seven in 10 or 15 strides. I was probably there too soon but there was no looking back once I had got to the front.

"It is just incredible to win for Gordon and J P. It's magic. Cheltenham is Cheltenham. There is no better way place to ride horses in the world. When you have winners and horses with chances like I am, it is a great position to be in."

Codd added: "I am in the latter stages of my riding career but I am just so lucky to be associated with Gordon Elliott who has looked after me since he started training so it is great to be associated with his team."

PAULING TAKES PLACE AS GOOD OMEN FOR BARTERS HILL TOMORROW

Twelve lengths behind winner Cause Of Causes was A Good Skin, trained by Tom George.

George said: "I'm delighted, he's run a great race and everything went right - he's just bumped into one better handicapped on the day, but he's improving. He's loved the better ground today and there's a big race in him one day."

Silvergrove, trained locally near Bourton-on-the-Water by Ben Pauling, was half a length further back in third.

Pauling said: "When you bring horses here it's never easy. He's an honest horse and he jumps and he gallops, but you just don't know how much he's improving, and he's probably improved again I'd say.

"Just on this quicker ground his jumping isn't as much of an asset as it is on soft ground; he's taking lengths out of them on the softer ground, but he's run a cracker and we can't complain. He's possibly one of the slowest horses in the yard, so he's got to be up there and you aren't going to be making ground up from half way.

"It's the first time we've been in the winner's enclosure at The Festival, so it's a good start and hopefully a good omen for tomorrow [when Pauling's yard star, the unbeaten Barters Hill, runs in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle].

"I couldn't have him [Barters Hill] any better. It's been well reported that he wasn't quite right yesterday, he was a bit stiff and we think he got cast, but I've just had a phone call from the yard to say he's 100% sound this evening so it's all systems go and I can't wait."
