...well let’s hope you have a winner.

Couldn't make this up.. The tape went down and me horse was left at the back facing the wrong way. Gave them all a 15 length head start.

Very obviously not my day today

Gotta laugh

....the starter shouldn’t release them if one is facing the wrong way, it certainly doesn’t sound like your day.

PP pulled from final tune up race before the gold cup. Either going straight there or not at all. Haven’t seen a reason why it’s been pulled.

....Grand National weights published today, very happy with allocations for 3 I’ve already backed; Rathvinden, Traffic Fluid and Rock the Kasbah.

....mmm, Rathvinden i’ve backed @ 40-1 & 33-1, it’s now 12-1. The hard parts are yet to come but a nice bet if it arrives at the post. Classy win today.

...Le Richebourg out for the season. At the head of the market for the Arkle, not one that I had in my book but that will hit a lot of ante-post punters very hard.

Bloody thing hasn't even jumped a fence this season, and it's joint fav for the GC.
Stupid.

Be very surprised if he runs at Cheltenham now. Be one of the great performances to not have a prep and go and win the gold cup.

I've gone Abolitionist in the National been bought from Ireland with this race in mind.

It's now trained by Dr Richard Newland a previous National winning trainer who schools his horses over National fences.

It's not run over fences yet, something it needs to do to qualify. But it could be potentailly thrown in at the weights as it was on its hurdle debut in England when it hacked up Aintree.
