But Stage Star had plenty in the tank and was able to regain momentum to pull four lengths clear of runner-up Notlongtillmay.<\/p>\n<p>Stage Star had won the Turners Novices\u2019 Chase at last season\u2019s Cheltenham Festival and will now be targeted at the Ryanair Chase at the March meeting. Betfair cut his odds for the race from 12-1 to 4-1.<\/p>\n<p>Cobden, after winning the Paddy Power Gold Cup for the first time, said: \u2018He is an honest horse and is a lot more relaxed now. He is also 10lb better here than anywhere else. We met the last all wrong but to go from nearly 30mph to walking out the back of it, nearly falling and then getting going again shows the true courage he has. I have always wanted to win this race. Thankfully this lad got me over the line.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/18\/22\/77974501-0-image-a-41_1700346302757.jpg\" height=\"392\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Harry Cobden&#8217;s hot streak continued as he won the\u00a0Paddy Power Gold Cup on Stage Star<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/18\/22\/77974503-0-image-a-42_1700346305357.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The 25-year-old recovered from a mistake on the final hurdle to secure victory at Cheltenham<\/p>\n<p>Nicholls has now won the Paddy Power Gold Cup three times. The champion trainer, also responsible for third-placed Il Ridoto, said: \u2018Stage Star has definitely improved on last year\u2019s form. He has won a tad cosily, even with a mistake like that. That puts him right in the mix for the Ryanair and that\u2019s what will be his target. If he didn\u2019t run before then I wouldn\u2019t lose any sleep over it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Burdett Road is now 12-1 for the Triumph Hurdle in March. He needs to brush up his jumping but has an engine, as he showed when winning on the Flat at Royal Ascot in June. He is putting the Newmarket stable of first-season trainer James Owen on the map.<\/p>\n<p>Cobden is the hottest jockey in Britain at the moment with 14 winners in the last 15 days. That takes his total to 67 for the season.<\/p>\n<p>But that achievement still leaves him 33 behind the jump jockey championship leader Sean Bowen, who rode his 100th winner of the season when successful on Booster Bob at Uttoxeter.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/racing\/article-12766243\/Harry-Cobden-race-double-Cheltenham-Paddy-Power-Gold-Cup.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Harry Cobden shines with a big-race double at Cheltenham landing the\u00a0Paddy Power Gold Cup and securing his 14th win in the last 15 days 25-year-old Harry Cobden continued his hot streak with a Cheltenham double Cobden won on 4-1 favourite\u00a0Stage Star to land feature Paddy Power Gold Cup Wins take Cobden&#8217;s total to 67 for&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":297436,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
