This year’s Cheltenham Gold Cup has been won by 9-to-1 shot Minella Indo.

The horse, trained by Henry de Bromhead and ridden by Jack Kennedy, came in just ahead of stable mate A Plus Tard  – who had Rachael Blackmore on-board.

She narrowly missed out on becoming the first female jockey to win the prestigious race.

Al Boum Photo – victor in the past two years – finished third.
