CALL It Magic ran a massive race in the Becher Chase. Ross O’Sullivan’s horse only finished fourth in the end, but that does not do justice to the performance that he put up.

The Indian River gelding was quickly into a lovely racing rhythm for Mark Enright. He had never raced at Aintree before, he had never raced over the Aintree fences before. Actually, he had never raced in Britain before. But he rose to the challenge that the fences presented, and horse and rider were superb over them.
