Not a difficult one it seems then.......lol.

Yes, nice one Tony , it is the mighty Flagship Uberalles, probably my most favourite horse of all time, though id have to ummm and arrrr about that for a bit....

I loved that horse, got many of his races on DVD, even had an email conversation with Sarah Hobbs about him once a few years back.....and of course was there to roar him home in the 2002 Queen Mum Champion Chase.

Placed in two other Queen Mum's, won 3 Tingle Creek's in successive years, never fell once in his career and has to be one of the best two milers of his generation - its just he often gets overshadowed by the likes of Edredon Bleu, Moscow Flyer and Azertyuiop.

To me though, hes the best!!!

What a great genuine horse one that was vastly underated but always ran well and never let himself down.

Here is one of his greatest victories in The Tingle Creek...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOS-qUtV3rk
