    Top of the morning, afternoon and evening to ya's all, to be sure to be sure begorrah.

    Racing at my local tomorrow but it's behind closed doors and I won't be making any special effort to make it either. A few nice horses on show as well, I might scourge the card later and see can I find a winner for myself.

    Public houses and restaurants all closed as well, on what would be one of the single most busiest days of trade of the year here. Hard time indeed!

    CAROLES TEMPLER 40/1 BET365 4 places
    A tad dissapointing on debut given the pedigree but his half brother came on a bundle from his first run and this one could follow suit in what isnt exactly a hot looking bumper. The ground here will be a lot less taxing as it looked bottomless at Chepstow. The yard can get one ready and although the 66/1 two places seems a stretch, 10/1 to beat three home seems more than fair.

    All horse racing in France cancelled. Initially for 30 days

    If that happens in the UK, attivo will have a well deserved holiday, unless we can find other race meetings to cover

    Just watched an interview on TV discussing the decision to continue horse racing behind close doors; promptly followed by an announcement that had just come through from the BHA (see Nass's post above)

    From tomorrow. There are going to be serious job losses in the racing industry.

    It's going to have implications well beyond end of April, isn't it?
    This is potentially life changing for a lot of folk in racing.
    Tough times.

    So all set for the last race in Britain - the 5.25 at Wetherby.

    No Anxiety maybe an appropriately named winner!
