Jockey Club Racecourses will honour one of the greatest jumps horses ever by awarding a special ‘Kauto Star Trophy’ in addition to a £1m bonus to the connections of the next horse to win The Jockey Club Chase Triple Crown, which consists of the Grade 1 Betfair Chase, 32 Red King George VI Chase and the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup.
The recognition marks ten years since the “horse of a lifetime” became the first, and so far only, racehorse in history to win Britain’s three blue riband staying chases in the same season (2006/7), which are each run at The Jockey Club’s racecourses.
