I like this race. I had some time to kill last year waiting for a lift and went in the bookies. Had a tenner on something in the Fred Winter that was well down the field and then split the last tenner between Briar Hill and Doctor Harper in the bumper, both were 33/1. It made that half an hour...

Pont Alexandre, Ballycasey, Champagne Fever, Djakadam, Annie Power and any of the other hurdlers they decide to send chasing - crikey, some team.

I think he'll go very close.

I'm a novice when it comes to all this stuff but I've been watching some of the markets on this afternoon's racing on Betfair and I noticed something. I looked at the market for the 4:00 at Lingfield before the 3:30 had been run. Perfect Cracker, then favourite, was trading at 4.9 to back, then...

He must be the only big Irish owner with no horses there, WPM probably fancies a few. Wasn't so long ago there were no Gigginstown horses there and now he's about their biggest trainer and definitely most successful. JP never used to have any there either.

What is left when all three of those have gone, seriously? Jumps racing will be a much worse place. ******* Sam T-D Champion jockey, give me strength.

It should be confined to the deserts of Dubai. Utter dross. No all weather racing and barely any summer jumping, a proper flat season and a proper jumps season.

Peddlers Cross would have won a lot of other Champions, Hurricane ripped his heart out that day and he's never recovered.

Master Minded's first Champion Chase was probably my favourite race to watch on TV - WOW.

Will Pont Alexandre go chasing?

Denman's Gold Cup - it was my first Gold Cup day at Cheltenham. I was stood in the ring and to see them come back so close was magic, despite being a big Kauto fan. We had a runner in the County who finished second last but it was wonderful nonetheless. I also backed Celestial Halo in the...

Monksland doesn't go.

He won on a horse of my Mum's at Sandown and I just remember him as being a top bloke. Even after the race was over and done he spent time stood near the weighing room talking to me about the cricket match that was on that day, I must have been about 15. Him and Frankie by far the nicest jocks...

Where's Overturn and Peddlers Cross?

Usually liases between bigger owners and their trainers regarding horses running plans, targets, which to buy, which to sell etc. Not sure why Godolphin need one really when it's a very much in-house operation rather than a number of trainers like Hamdan Al Maktoum for example.

Crisford resigned.

Some big news about to come from Godolphin according to Twitter - what's going on?

Is Hinterland going to run now?
