Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  He tokomaha ake, engari e kore e nui ake te patu. Ko te kaiako a Mark Bradstock me whakamahi hei kupu whakataki mō tōna wharekai. Ko te tūmanako o te kaiako o Oxfordshire koia tērā te take i te wā e tono ana a Coneygree kia riro ko ia te tauhou tuatahi ki te wikitōria i te £550,000 Betfred Gold Cup mai i a Kapene Christy i te tau 1974. I tiimata te korero mo taua hiahia nui i muri i te kitenga o Bradstock me tana wahine kaiawhina kaiako, a Sara, i te hikoi a Coneygree ki te kaainga ma te 40 roa i te Kauto Star Novices <unk> Chase i Kempton i te Ra Whakataetae i tana ra tuarua anake. Ka haere a Coneygree a te kaiako o Oxfordshire a Mark Bradstock ki te hanga hītori i te Betfred Gold Cup i te Paraire. Kei te whakataetae a Coneygree kia riro ko ia te tauhou tuatahi ki te wikitōria i te £ 550,000 Betfred Gold Cup mai i a Kapene Christy i te tau 1974. Ko te taunakitanga ehara i te mahinga i puta mai i te wa i patu ai a Coneygree i te Hennessy Gold Cup runner-up Houblon Des Obeaux e whitu nga roa i Newbury's Denman Chase i te Hui-tanguru 7. Ko tetahi waahanga o te nama mo nga mahi a Coneygree kua tohaina ki tana tama a Alfie. Kei te whai ia i tana umanga peke i raro i te aratohu a Graham Fletcher o mua o te ao me te ako i a Coneygree i runga i nga pou. Ko Bradstock, i noho 12 tau hei kaiawhina ki te kaiwhakaako rongonui a Fulke Walwyn, i kii: "Ko te kaha o Coneygree he tere tere tere tere me te kaha ki te peke i taua tere, i te wa kaore e taea e te nuinga". He mea whakamiharo mō tētahi pāmu iti pēnei i a mātau te whai i tētahi kaihoe i te Hui, kaua rawa e kī he tangata whakairoiro. <unk> Engari kāore au i te whakaaro he tangata pōrangi ahau. Ka taea e mātou te whakanoho ki ngā pāmu nui ake, ahakoa ko ō rātou hoiho £250,000, i te mea ko te 99 ōrau o ā mātou hoiho he kai-rere-mua <unk> he pai rātau, ā, e mōhio ana ki te peke.<unk> I wikitoria a Coneygree i te Kauto Star Novices'Chase i Kempton i te Rā o te Whakataetae i te Rā o te Whakataetae i tana rēhita tuarua anake. Kei raro a Coneygree i te tohutohu a Mark, wahine kaiāwhina kaiako, a Sara, me tana tama, a Alfie.
Ko Coneygree pea te tauhou tuatahi ki te wikitoria i te Ipu Koura mai i te tau 1974. Ko tā te kaiako a Mark Bradstock: 'Mā te toa iti pēnei i a mātau, he mea whakamiharo te whai i tētahi kaikawe i te Huihuinga, me te kore e whakaarohia he mea whakamiharo.' I wikitoria a Kauto Star Novices i Kempton i tana hopu tuarua anake. Ka riro i a Coneygree te whakataetae £ 550,000 i te 3.20 i te ahiahi o te Paraire ki Cheltenham.
