Sir Alex Ferguson, the former manager of Manchester United, experienced his first victory at the prestigious Cheltenham Festival with a 25-1 winner and followed it up with another success. Recently, he also achieved wins in high-stakes races in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, adding significant amounts to his earnings. He had been unsuccessful at Cheltenham many times before, but his luck changed thanks to Monmiral, trained by Paul Nicholls, winning on St Patrick’s Thursday. This was followed by Protektorat winning the Ryanair Chase, resulting in a double victory. Jockey Harry Cobden expressed disbelief that the horse had emerged victorious. I believed that his odds should have been 125-1 even though he was actually 25-1. United players and staff gather for a team-bonding meal. United have two spots available in the starting lineup against Liverpool. Ferguson is a co-owner of Monmiral alongside Ged Mason and John and Lisa Hales. In February, the owners paid a historic amount of €740,000 for Caldwell Potter, a purchase described as “fantastic” by the Scottish individual.
