Galopin Des Champs finished second
Inothewayurthinkin triumphed in the Boodles Cheltenham Gold Cup, securing victory for trainer Gavin Cromwell and jockey Mark Walsh, pipping odds-on favourite Galopin Des Champs.
Galopin Des Champs had settled in the middle of the pack early on. However, signs of trouble began to show on the first circuit, hinting that things might not go according to plan for the reigning champion.
Despite a few untidy jumps and being hindered when Ahoy Senor fell, Galopin Des Champs still loomed large as the horses approached the third-last fence and charged toward the home turn.
Leading the field with two fences to go, Galopin Des Champs was closely pursued by Inothewayurthinkin, who had remained within striking distance throughout the race.
After the second-last fence, Inothewayurthinkin took on Galopin Des Champs, powering past him over the final fence and charging up the hill to secure victory in the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
