Does Lostintranslation deserve to be Gold Cup favourite after his Betfair Chase win?
Luke Harvey, ITV presenter He definitely does. I’ve always been a big fan of the horse and what I like most about him is that he loves his work. He goes around with his ears pricked and is the most incredible jumper. I think these Tizzard horses are helped enormously by Robbie Power, who is a real horseman rather than just a jockey.
Cillin Leonard, jockey Yes, I thought he ran a great race at Haydock so he does deserve to be on the back of that. I watched it back after Ascot as well and it looked even nicer then. It was a top performance and Robbie Power gave him a great ride.
Gavin Sheehan, jockey Yes. I love the way he operates, he’s so quick from A to B and that allows him to travel easily into his races.
