Harry Redknapp’s The Jukebox Man rallied at the last to clinch a thrilling victory in the King George VI Chase.
The Group One race at Kempton Park went down to a photo-finish with last year’s winner Banbridge and 9-4 joint-favourite Gaelic Warrior.
Owner Redknapp faced an anxious wait before the ex-Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham manager could celebrate the win.
The trio went into the final jump together, with The Jukebox Man coming down in third, but Ben Jones led the 7-1 shot back between his two rivals.
Although Banbridge (16-1) edged fractionally in front, Redknapp’s charge dug deep to win by a nose, with Gaelic Warrior a similar margin back in third.
