Cobden

Cobden sent the Paul Nicholls-trained 11-4 favourite to the front from the off and led all the way through the 3m 210y race.

The horse, ridden by Harry Cobden, runs in the yellow and red colours of John Hales, who died aged 85 in January.

Reigning champion Harry Cobden is full of admiration for Sean after he rode a 1,000th winner.

"For such a young man it's a phenomenal achievement - his hard work and dedication is unbelievable. He'll have to have a party," Cobden tells BBC Sport Wales.

Much as Sean might like to have a party, as Cobden suggests, the life of a jockey does not leave much room for indulgence.
