Just Kargese yesterday. Winston Junior was a bit of a gut punch.
They were camera shy. Plus had better things to do 🤔
😂
In the middle.
After 40 years of attending the festival, this is my third year in Tenerife for Cheltenham week. Despite the media stereotyping we are not heavy drinkers. Great friends, good food, a shared villa with partners and of course the sunshine to enjoy the racing. Nothing stays the same forever.
It does feel they way. I assume Ronnie Bartlett booked the Jockey 😉
It’s a shocker
I have spent most of the last 6 months - and will spend most of the next X months - rubbing shoulders with NHS workers, from surgeons to daily care workers, many of them non-Brits.
Their professionalism, good humour and decency has blown me away and restored my faith in humanity. Awesome.
There goes Patrick’s ride on Gaelic Warrior.
Listening to Joe Chambers, I think she’s Champion Hurdle bound.
😂
I appreciate your use of the connections. Every man and his dog telling Mullins “Mighty Park” is running in the wrong race. It’s as if the trainer had any say.
Could Frankie be about to experience the Boris Becker treatment? www.racingpost.com/news/britain...
Jesus
And so it begins….. watering 😳
I can’t wait for Cheltenham, if only for the 4 days of distraction it offers.
Another tax avoiding piss boiler who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
It’s also why powerful deniers will keep denying.
So much for the “board of peace”.
According to Gary O’Brien on Racing TV. Willie will have 9 or 10 runners in the Triumph Hurdle. Jockey bookings will be interesting.
Whenever I read about Amo racing I get a whiff of Richard Onslow.
At the prices I’d be a layer. Lot of water to go under the bridge between now and then.
Excellent analysis Simon. This bit made me chuckle. Not arf.
I’m sure there was a lot of pressure from up above not to run. Sadly the right decision for racing as a whole and the horse.
What happened at Southwell was pretty irrelevant IMO.
He’s a good man who still does a lot of charity work. No ‘board of peace’ for Gordon.
I think stats are a useful guide providing you can apply reasoning as to why something is trending.
‘Mares can’t win the Browns Advisory, it’s been 31 years’ is obviously nonsense as very few try.
Blimey
Run To Form (RTF) is a better guide to stable form than strike rate. Henry’s RTF is at 64% for last 14 days, that pretty respectable. Gavin is at a more modest 44%. These are Racing Post figures. Even so, I’m sure both would have hoped for a stronger mid winter performance.
Henry De Bromhead and Gavin Cromwell.
