Cheltenham Day 2

[JamesRB]

What a horse he is! He just does his job doesn't he, he's so dependable and that was just silky smooth, great from Energumene, what on earth happened to Edwardstone mind, hated the ground? He never looked comfortable even after 2 or 3 furlongs!

the race has fell apart for him 2 years in a row but you definitely can't crab the way he's won them

Agreed. Pleased he won and proved me right as I told a couple of others when he got beaten on Trials day that he’d turn it around if ridden more forward in the. QMCC but disappointing neither EDG nor Edwardstone ran any sort of race (EDG probably sulked)

I have spent half a lifetime sulking; it should come as no surprise to you .
Barry's Tea has been my salvation though.

Keith is some horseman; great ride.

It shows you when it comes to Cheltenham there's no messing.

The money that came for Delta Work in barely minutes was unreal.

In the end they were well rewarded but Davy rode and absolute cracker and almost upset the applecart but yer man on Delta Works had other ideas...great fun to watch

Was on Thyme White there...... Thought he was cantering....

Is Patrick Neville still training from out of Ann Duffields yard?

I believe so. Fantastic performance by the Whacker and clearly an exceptional training one, too. Not a dry eye here. That's two days out of two, maybe it'll be a record 4 on the trot

Yeah Thymey was coming for it...and on ground he supposedly dislikes enough that last place wouldn't have been a surprise.

Think I heard whoever was talking over on the walk in that he was.

Lecky robbed.
Some result though

 

[reet hard]

As the commentators said only 2 horses turned up in what ended up as a disspointing 1 horse race.

Aye, it'll maybe be called a disappointing race when he wins again next year,too.

 

[edgt]

Shades of Badsworth Boy back in the day.

 

[jinnyj]

And of course he won a Point to Point at Larkhill as a four year old....not often its that way round...UK Pointing graduate ending up going to Ireland in the first place.

Is the Dudley Cup still run there Jinny ?

I guess that's why they call them bumpers

Great for the kid gleeson to win

 

[edgt]

Another Festival Fairytale.
I picked a bad year to stay at home.

Do you mean the Lady Dudley Cup? Think that’s run at Chaddesley Corbett. The big race run at Larkhill is the Coronation Cup.

Not a cat in hells chance, Conrad is going chasing next season bypassing the Arkle and going straight to the QMCC.
