- Burrough Hill Lad proved himself in a class of his own amongst the staying chasers in the 1984/85 season, scoring on five of his seven starts, including here when carrying 12st to win the Hennessy Gold Cup at Newbury.
Sent off the 100/30 favourite, Burrough Hill Lad was given a ground-saving ride up the inner by John Francome and he jumped fluently on his way to a most impressive success, going clear between the final two fences, recording a four-length victory with 30 lengths back to the third.
He was the first Hennessy winner to carry 12st since Mill House and Arkle in the 1960s.

What a gem of a race, Sir Peter doing the commentary, The Greatest Jockey riding, and a view of my house on the hill behind at the end lol. Such a scenic course Newbury was before the zillion flats built around it.
l worked in Newbury for 6 months and loved looking at the racecourse on my way into work on the the train
@@robjanko3010 But did you ever go racing?
In my opinion he was the best since Arkle...and still is
Injuries ruined his career.
Great finishing speed with 12 stone.
One of the greatest runnings, wonderful horse, great trainer and francome aboard, add Sir Peter and it doesn't get better than that.
What a line up in that race. Those were golden days.
Great big weight carrying performance from Burrough Hill Lad.
My favourite jumps horse ridden by the best ever jumps jockey !!!!
Nope mccoy the goat
That performance, best since arkle, couldn't see kauto star winning that race with 12 stone , against that opposition somehow 🤔
Peak Francome, BHL and Sir Peter
What a great horse Burrough Hill Lad one of the greats probably could've won multiple Gold Cups but for injuries
it's now called the Ladbrokes trophy
today the third last fence is not jumped because it was damaged but back then they jump even if the fence is damaged
Great performance with top weight just a pity he didn't stay sound
