After last year’s disappointing Festival - these have been a belting two days . Story after story especially Michael O’Sullivan’s Cheltenham duo coming back to win and Golden Ace . Also a Festival to remind us not to be afraid of one horse and that if you don’t jump you don’t win Majborough...

The New Lion was brilliant . Just managed to avoid being swayed by the Mullins hype but indeed all the first three look very good.

He jumped really well - unlike the rest of the field . Suspect The Jukebox Man would have hosed up . Lecky is such a likeable horse though.

Poignant. I thought he was bound to win two out but Quilixios was still leading at the last - not sure what O’Keeffe was doing . Good to see albeit remotely Captain Guinness justified my ew hopes .

Well when I got to Cheltenham today I didn’t expect Ballyburn to be the horse to shaft my Placepot .

The Short Go ran well there in the Ultima .

Possibly but RB cantered him back rather than pulled him up .

Thrilling race though .

Nico said he was outpaced and then just kept running on - he also made a mistake at the second last albeit nowhere as bad as Maj.

What possible need is there for it ? Racing really cannot stop shooting itself in the foot - nobody wants to watch AW racing .

Shocking run from Workahead - doesn’t bode well for H de B this week .

Would be a shame - but Redcar has become a place for a lot of very poor racing . The late Leslie Petch would be appalled by the dross . The days of the Vaux Gold tankard, Andy Capp Handicap ( which went to York) , the William Hill Gold Cup etc are long gone - now only the Zetland GC , the 2...

Still warm and sunny in Cheltenham by all accounts. They have started watering the New Course ! Typical though that the temperature is to see a sharp drop from Tuesday even though remaining dry . Great to not have one of these recent soft Festivals that have plagued the meeting the last few...

Delighted Brighter is running - hope Lossiemouth turns up too . The vibes seem good about CH - will be a proper CH this year it seems.

Are they really going tun Fact to File in the Ryanair - surely he must run in the GC ? JP has Spillane ‘s Tower who has a much better chance IMO of winning the Ryanair than Corbetts Cross does of winning the GC - it’s looking like a good to soft meeting for once . You cannot be afraid of one...

I always have suspected there must have been something physical with Bregawn.

Not good for Pipe what with Tisdall and Drew now spending their cash with Mullins and the result being Final Demand.

Thank heavens he looked like he had more than enough on Saturday.

El Fabiolo disappointing there - looks a shadow of the horse he was on that form to not be able to go past Senecia.
