CHIANTI CLASSICO, David Bass & @kimbaileyracing win the Ultima Handicap as the British strike back for the first time 🥊#CheltenhamFestival pic.twitter.com/tMymAMLL3p
In a triumphant display, the home team secured their first victory of the week with Chianto Classico who dominated the race under the skilled guidance of jockey David Bass.
As they rounded the final bend, Chianto Classico surged ahead, leaving the competition in the dust. While Twig and Meetingofthewaters made valiant efforts to keep pace, it was Kim Bailey’s charge who ultimately prevailed.
At the finish line, Chianto Classico held a commanding lead of four-and-a-half lengths over the pursuing horses, with Famous Bridge trailing in fourth place.
Bass said: “It meant a lot, it’s actually quite a good feeling to win here. It’s a privilege to ride these horses. It’s hard to win here though – 2020 was the last time and it’s been too long.”
Bailey said: “I thought at one stage ‘oh no, David is getting too brave’, but he jumped for fun and was cantering coming down the hill wasn’t he?
“David has been confident the whole way through, so he was right. He was absolutely adamant from day one he was riding this horse (instead of Trelawne). He adores the horse and says he’s a complete terrier, and he’s done that today like a terrier.
“He’s as hard as nails, he’s not very big but he’s got so much ability and is so agile, he always has been.
“When Aiden Murphy and I bought him, we said we’d bring him here, but I never thought it would actually happen!
“We’ve been knocking at the door for a while, so it’s great for everybody that we got it today. It’s huge for team, having a runner at Cheltenham is what it’s all about.
“Today has been the plan for a long time, we trained him for today.”
On Bass, he joked: “I’m not sure he’s that special, we’ve been trying to get rid of him for ages. We’ve got nothing in common, I’m not a vegan anyway!
