Many Clouds • Many Clouds collapsed and died after narrowly beating Thistlecrack to win the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham's Festival Trials Day. • King George winner Thistlecrack caught Many Clouds close to the finish but the 2015 Grand National winner, ridden by Leighton Aspell, fought back to win. • Many Clouds collapsed after the winning post and was treated by veterinary staff before he was pronounced dead. • Trainer Oliver Sherwood said the 10-year-old was the horse of a lifetime . • Many Clouds, owned by Trevor Hemmings, also won the Gold Cup trial in 2015 and the Hennessy Gold Cup in 2014. • I always said he'd die for you, and he has today, doing what he loved most, said Sherwood. • He wanted to win that race, by God he wanted to win it - he was beat at the last and he fought the last 50 yards to get up and win. • I've trained for 32 years now and horses like that don't come along very often. • Sherwood added he would enjoy the memories of Many Clouds' successes and said his last race was maybe the best career performance . • Thistlecrack's trainer Colin Tizzard described Many Clouds as a lovely horse . • My initial thought when we got beat was that I was disappointed but it's as sad as can be, he said. • They had a battle and it's just a tragic end to the race. This is what happens in our sport occasionally and you've got to face up to it. • Many Clouds had started the race at odds of 8-1, with Thistlecrack the 4-9 favourite. • Information resource: bbc • ------- • Subscribe HERE: http://goo.gl/rPWsVQ • ------- • Mr.News - News Reader • Google plus: http://bit.ly/2iWDpSO • Facebook page: http://bit.ly/2iqdDt3 • Twitter: http://bit.ly/2iv9Fxt
