The standout 50/1 on Altobelli for the stayers hurdle on Saturday seems pretty dismissive. Didn’t think he was that much of a no hoper with possibly more to come at the trip.

Always a good night. Well worth a visit if you’ve never been before.

Didn’t know that Huw Edwards is the grandson of Roy Edwards who rode in so many Nationals when I was growing up, Two Springs, er … springs to mind.

The Spring Cup at Newbury on Saturday has an old style look to it as it's run on the round course, hence the reduced size field. Hopefully Metal Merchant will be back to defend his title as the 20/1 looks very fair.

I must have heard 'Up The Junction' by Squeeze a thousand times but it's still one of the cleverest songs ever written. Every time you hear a brilliant line in it, somehow an even better one then comes along. Perfection.

The Yellow Sam Handicap Hurdle is staged at Bellewstown today. Tradition calls for a gamble landed and someone holding up the telephone box.

Harry Cobden is an absolute artist.

Seamus Mullins in for a shock when he goes to Plumpton on Sunday and sees someone with the same surname taking his place in the owners and trainers.

Anyone else having issues today with the Racing Post site? Taking an age to load up any page and the same from another device. No concerns with other websites I'm using.

Popping along to Sandown for a cracking days racing. Looking at the title of the last I’m expecting the winner to return to a rendition of ‘Hi Ho Silver Lining’.

Need to add at least 10lbs to these British raiders, going over and cleaning up these Irish handicaps.

Just turned on the radio and first song up trying to steer me towards backing an outsider in the Guineas.

Commentator is fixated with the build of Traore but hasn't realised that he's been useless for the last 3 years. #AVLFUL

15 years today ago today it was trains all the way to Hamburg to beat the Icelandic volcano issues to see Fulham in a European final. Heartbreaking finish but felt so incredible to reach that stage. #FFC

Brentford 2 Fulham 3. Fulham win 5-3 on aggregate. #FFC

At Racing TV later today to cover the meeting at Cork. The gamble on Chazzesmee's 1/2 brother Mastastroque, has certainly made the finale very interesting.

Commentator saying he expected more from Man Utd tonight. What has he been watching this season? #TOTMUN

Queen Anne Stakes at Ascot next month looks some race but the remaining 33/1 Lake Forest is too big. Nice return in France yesterday should put him straight.

Sandown bound for one of my favourite evening meetings of the year.

With the Oaks on Friday it was good to see the Sven Hanson colours, as worn to success on Fair Salinia at Epsom in 1978, carried to success on It's A Heartbeat at The Curragh Racecourse
