    Honestly think he is tailor made for the RSA. Would be disappointed if a horse with his class went for the 4 miler.

    Mullins said anything?

    That fall was a bad un. Probably knackered this race as a contest as well. There was nowt between DC and BB pre race but one got a handy lead there. You'd have been disappointed if you'd backed the Don and he didn't win after that.

    Guan the Don - lovely performance that - skipped away from them when they came to challenge between the last 2. Lord Windemere stayed on eye-catchingly.

    Lord Windermere another satisfactory reappearance and he may well even end up improving again this year. He'll be aiming to peak in March again.

    Has he ever jumped like that in his career? Terrific effort from him and did well to wrestle the lead back at the end there.

    I don't know what Hobbs is feeding his string but his yard's form has been one of the highlights of the NH season thus far

    Looks like they're after a handicap with Twinlight!

    If there is a more inconsistent horse in Ireland I am yet to see it.

    The ride on Felix was terrific though. Lovely drive.

    Christ I don't think I've ever seen a horse hit a fence that hard and stay on his feet - Ruby nursed Un Atout home after that so forget about the form.

    Speculative little e/w on Brigadier Miller at Huntingdon at 20/1

    Is Ardnahoe a million miles ahead of its mark or has Jason Maquire just delivered one of the best rides of the season so far? Brilliant either way.
