Unowhatimeanharry lined up at Cheltenham last month with an eight-race winning sequence to his name and set off as the 5-6 favourite for one of the festival meeting’s feature events. He finished four-and-a-quarter lengths behind Nichols Canyon in third place, and a more aggressive ride by Fehily here was enough to bridge that gap but with very little to spare. “I haven’t been able to bring myself to watch the race at Cheltenham again because I was so disappointed,” Harry Fry, the trainer of Unowhatimeanharry, said. Nichols Canyon pushed us all the way and they were two top jockeys at their very best and two brilliant horses. I just felt that because we had hacked early, I had to go forward and luckily Unowhatimeanharry is a very tough little horse.
