Apart from the great Red rum Dessie was the best it brings a😢to my eye when i watch these reruns what great memories ❤🎉

they were so lucky back then they did not have to worry about the low sun, everything was so black and white

Brave as they come & never knew when he was beaten

When times are tough just remember, they aren't as tough as Persian Punch

Dessie and Dawn Run.. me 2 favourite gee gees

P00

Threw the docket in the bin and had to fetch it. What a warrior

My favourite horse the legend dessie

Thanks for posting this excellent video. I wasn't born until 1965 so I never saw Arkle in his pomp and glory. The horses from the 70's onwards (so many household names) brought back wonderful memories. Thanks again.

Loved the way Make a Stand worked his way through the ranks from a flat horse to a handicapper then wins a champion hurdle, brilliant horse.

What cruel sport, every replay has death injuries, torture and unnecessary. Whoever enjoys this have no excuse.

Perfect choice of commentators for this great trip down memory lane . John Francombe , one of the true artists in the saddle and equally as soothing in the commentary box and Alaister Down , who insightful commentary on racing over the last 30 years has been a joy to listen too.

Vrryyy fortunately tooo seen he smashing, he's missed, coreee

Great video. Alistair Down and John Francome great speakers.

Unbelievable horse, was my favourite at the time. But for injury, could've won a lot more! Form in beating hurricane run who went on to win King George and arc is top class, underrated horse in my opinion.

Love this.

My #1 fav horse what a legand

Wonder if Adrian maguire ever learned how to tie his cap on properly.

Good 2year old ran great race in 2000 guinese

Has any filly ever won the Grand National? Or any colt that became a significant sire?

Video is too blurry for me to appreciate.

This one should be the 2006 December Festival Hurdle at Leopardstown instead of that year's Irish Champion Hurdle.

We all have our favourites but for me it’s the ones that turn up and track any going any distance and can win, desert orchid one man and Kauto star my three favs

If ever the cheers of a crowd carried a horse home, it was the 1989 Gold Cup. A true legend in NH racing and privileged to have been around to watch him ❤️

God that horse had some great nicknames in commentary

One of my favourite horses. So consistent

My greyhounds grandfather! Amazing!

Dessie,frankel,stars

I am a 45-year old from Philadelphia. I am thoroughly addicted to National Hunt racing. The Grand National is my Super Bowl.

Is anyone else screaming their lungs out for Dessie and it’s 2020 .....legend

Greatest dog race ever witnessed! Commentary the best

I had a tear in my eye watching this. I still have my £5 e/w betting slip from Ascot in 2004 when the poor lad died. Heartbreaking, a true great.

Greatest race at the festival

Who could forget Dessie

I'm on the search for the 2006 Stayers (World) hurdle at Cheltenham where Derby winning Irish Champion flat jockey, Johnny Murtagh came agonisingly close to adding a top National Hunt race to his impressive CV with Golden Cross. Alot of flat jockeys have ridden the Champion Bumper at the festival but I think Johnny Murtagh was the 1st top class flat jockey to ride a jumps race. He'd ridden Golden Cross several times on home soil & as a flat jockey, was not expecting the owners of Golden Cross to allow him retain the partnership for such a prestigious race at the Premier National Hunt festival. He was if I recall, unfortunate to be just beaten on the line. Not many flat jockeys the calibre of Murtagh, would switch codes but he didn't look out of place amongst the best in the jumps game.

Thank you all for your lovely comments. We hope you enjoyed this video and for those currently struggling without racing during this coronavirus lockdown - hopefully it serves as something to whet the appetite for when it all returns in the future! Stay safe.

RIP Champ 4-16-20

The reason people loved Dessie was because he not only won but earned the win.

commentary. "The earlies footage of a Grand National is from the 1908 race" while they show footage from the 1905 and 1903 races ROFLMAO

Without doubt the best i've seen loved Dessie

In a year he should get 90,000 wins

RIP Make A Stand 11-22-19

Pinatubo is a chip off the old block!

Top class sire

Dessie,was is and always will be a legend.

Undefeated? Yes he was.

How lovely. Thanks you. Subbed.

Dessie ❤️
