Willie Mullins has reflected on his record-breaking season by posting a short message on social media.
"Dermot Weld is a pioneering trainer and paved the way for all trainers, especially on the international stage, so it's a real honour and privilege to surpass his record. The trainer had already struck with Lossiemouth earlier on in the day and Paul Townend produced the 9-4 favourite with a perfectly-timed run to add another to the tally.
It seemed as though the jockey may have been a touch too patient when Kargese still had four horses to pass approaching the final flight.
