Still think the 7s GDC for the Ryanair could look silly fairly soon. Remember Vautour folks... he was 100% Gold Cup bound and jogged round to win the Ryanair. With the Allaho doubts the pieces could fall into place - only 6yo as well. #Cheltenham #Galopindeschamps

El Fabiolo has a serious engine... novicey at 2 or 3 fences there but they're called beginners chases for a reason - people seem to expect novices not to touch birch on the way round FairyhouseRacecourse #elfabiolo

RIP Cue Card. Abiding memory of him is up in the stand at Cheltenham everyone staring at racecards thinking 'what the hell is that?!' as he bolted up in the bumper at any price. Went on to win the Ryanair, Charlie Hall, Betfair Chase, Aintree bowl, Ascot Chase and KG 👏👏

Merry Christmas everyone. Enjoy the festivities and we all look forward to tomorrow's action 🐴 #BuzzingforBoxingDay

Finally get to see Gentlemansgame over a fence today 👌

Imagine cutting Appreciate It after that 😐 a canter round... hopefully Top Bandit and JK fine, that looked a horror fall Naas Racecourse

Oh, Jumps racing, it's yersel. Bring on the new season 🙌. Had an ew bet on Coltherd Racing Cold Sobar in the Persian War. Will like the ground and overpriced. #Chepstow #Jumpsareback

Shanbally Kid is interesting in the 3m hcap Leopardstown RC on Sat, still very unexposed as a staying hurdler. #DRF

Day for the mudlarks on Day 1 CheltenhamRacecourse Famous Bridge 🟢🟡 could revel in it in Ultima and can't see Slade Steel🟣⚪️ out the frame in the Supreme. Have a great week all. 🐴🍀 #CheltenhamFestival

Keeping the faith with Shanbally Kid in the Coral Cup today at a price Cheltenham, the race could set up perfectly for him 🙏 best of luck to everyone on Day 2 🐴🍀 #CheltenhamFestival

Day 3. Ground should be like a glue pot today, so still take getting. I like Letsbeclearaboutit ew in Turners at around 20s. Big fan of Jade de Grugy so hope she can turn the fav over for the all conquering team Willie Mullins be lucky everyone 🐴🍀 #Cheltenham2024

Made it to Day 4 in one piece CheltenhamRacecourse Friday always tough, but I like Petit Tonnerre ew in County and Better Days Ahead in the finale. Have a lucky last day everyone 🐴🍀

The changes to CheltenhamRacecourse are for a better, more competitive festival. Makes for a grey area re: ante post bets already struck, but that'll come out in the wash, no doubt. Surely refunds on Turners at least? #Turners #Cheltenham

Coral Cup...

Just an absolute sickener with Michael O'Sullivan. These boys put everything on the line for the sport we love. Thoughts and prayers with his friends and family 🙏 RIP
