Another great performance from Big City Roller and Lilly Pinchin at Chepstow to finish 2nd on his second time over hurdles. After winning at Carlisle on his season debut back in October he backed up his impressive run over this longer trip on heavy ground, but was just out run by the winner in the final run in. He really is in an exciting horse for the Old Gold crew to enjoy! Well done team and congratulations to Old Gold Racing 17 ⭐️ #winter #sunrise #topspec #fedontopspec #happyhorses #clr #clracing #charlielongsdonracing #onfire #seasonprep #horseracing #chepstowracecourse #chepstow
