many bookies paying out for 5th and 6th places too;
fifth - Farclas @16/1.
sixth - Blaklion @50/1.
Let us also remember that only 15 finished, there are reports that The Long Mile, ridden by Luke Dempsey and trained by his father Philip, has been put to sleep after being injured in a fall on the course. For all the glory that goes to the likes of Minella Times we MUST remember that these horses and jockeys put themselves are risk and incidents are a regular occurrence no matter what improvements the 'powers that be' will maintain.
I hope those that fell or were pulled up will return home safe and sound.
