Racing TV published this video item, entitled “Gallant grey Further Flight is too tough in the Totesport Ebor for Michael and Barry Hills (1990)” – below is their description.
What a stayer.
7/1 joint-favourite Further Flight fended off his challengers inside the final two furlongs to strike in the historic Ebor handicap for trainer Barry Hills and jockey Michael Hills at York.
This hugely likeable horse went on to win the Jockey Club Cup at Newmarket for five successive seasons, and also plundered the Goodwood Cup in the following two campaigns. He also landed the 1992 Doncaster Cup.
Further Flight was named European Champion Older Horse and won 24 times from a 70-race career that spanned 10- years. “You could live a lifetime and never have a horse like him again,” said Barry Hills.
