Christmas Meeting at Ascot 1997 Julian Wilson's Final Grandstand featuring The Betterware Cup.

In 1997 those two TV giants that had seen us through 4 decades retired. Sir Peter hung up his binoculars after The Hennessy and Julian Wilson carried on until the end of the year. This was his final Saturday Grandstand Show, there is a presentation for him from the now Duke of Devonshire, then 'Stoker' Hartington and a BBC tribute showing rare footage from over the years. Also great racing including a Kennel Gate Hurdle, Long Walk Hurdle and Betterware Gold Cup. A great ride from AP and a future Cheltenham Gold Cup winner feature.
