Welsh national winner Dream Alliance on Parade at Chepstow: A real star [01:15]
There has been interest from Hollywood in the story of Dream Alliance - but in my mind there is no doubt who should play the horse - it HAS to be Dream Alliance himself! He knows he's a star! Born to a £350 mare on a disused allotment on a old slagheap in South Wales; raised by a pigeon breeder; its a cinderella horse story. His jockey Tom O'Brien came to my engagement party (thrown for us by Dr Simon and Angela Clarke) when injured a few months before the Welsh national so I feel quite attached to the horse and delighted for Tom!
