Well done you! How much did you pick up? Just found the replay, some ride, definitely took the brave man’s route! Only watched it once but difficult to see what the protest was about, it was like the parting of the Red Sea up the rails!It only went and went and won it didn’t it !!!

Multiple protest - 2nd against 1st and 5th against 2nd. Both were for being impeded but the stewards considered any obstruction wasn’t enough to affect the result and they were both dismissed.
Nice win, congratulations
Did you bet on him because you fancied him to win or because he's TB's horse?

Definitely the latter.
Yes of course you would imagine he as more idea of when to back his horse than the average punter
