O'Brien star snatches King George glory in a thriller

But the regular runner at intermediate distances stepped up to three miles and handed O'Brien his biggest win over jumps.
Banbridge soared over the last fence to collar the longtime French-trained leader, sparking celebrations for his 31-year-old handler and potato king Ronnie Bartlett.
O'Brien has prepared horses to conquer meetings like the Cheltenham Festival and Royal Ascot after landing the Derby twice as a jockey.
