    Well done on the Ces winner Ste <applause>

    Fine performance from Ballyoptic off 148 there - love to see him go for the Coral Hurdle off the back of that.

    Hexham ready to start racing again! Hopefully the jockeys delayed departure doesnt impact his recovery/injury.

    Not sure what the delay to the air ambulance was caused by but it all sounds a bit like "Dad's Army". As you say, hopefully no negative impact on Henry Brooke's condition.

    I do not expect that the Guineas and Derby prices of Churchill have contracted much with the 99-rated pacemaker Lancaster Bomber in such close proximity.

    Nice to see some decent jumping stuff on from Cheppy boys, shame Channel 4 didn't show any of it rather than showing the flat stuff and it's just an O'Brien Group 1 stranglehold as usual <doh>

    Fabre has sent one over in the last at Newmarket. Obviously Johannes Vermeer is clear on all known ratings but his Group1 form looks a bit more suspect now and he's been off a long time. For him you'd think a running on 3rd would be satisfactory today.

    As we know, Fabre doesn't like to waste a trip and I've taken a small play on Ancient History
