    They are given the number cloth when they weigh out, so if it is wrong that is the clerk of the scales fault.

    Amazing to see Taquin come back there, he just bolted up on handicap debut. They said he was done for the season so a festival handicap could be a surprising target now!

    Harry Whittington has had no luck in the Betfair Hurdle. Last year Arzal badly hampered then stayed on well. This year his Affaire D'Honeur was wanting to set off with the pace, one of Willie's busts the tape and AF gets left at the start on the 2nd attempt before staying on nicely. And yes I was on both! <laugh>. Wonder which one of Willies will hose up in a festival handicap having run like a drain here a la Wicklow Brave.
