Cheltenham Day One

Have had a quiet betting day today (no really strong fancies) but have to back Quevega...think she is a class act in this.
 
Great to see a really classy performance to finish a day off that was highlighted with numerous close finishes.
 
Glad to see Garde Champetre slowly earning his keep !

Thought it was a great ride by McCoy but was Maljimar sent on too soon for a horse that had never tried the trip ?
 
Be interesting to see what positive spin ( or lies ) Cheltenham put on their attendance figures. I felt it was by the far the smallest crowd at any festival day I have attended in 20 years.
 
Never been to the Festival prior to today UG but I'd say it was only about 60% of what Aintree gets on National day. Enjoyable never the less mind :)
