Morning, all. I don’t know about you but I’m looking forward to the union between Mr Henderson and Dickie later on this afternoon. Now before I get accused of, at worst, ‘joining the boxing thread’, or at best, saying the campest thing outside of a ‘Carry On’ film, let me explain that I am, of course talking about GAITWAY in the ‘lucky last’ today at Cheltenham (3.45).

This one makes his debut over hurdles and has been off for over 2 years but if he can translate his bumper form (in which he has very close ties in with both Yanworth and Tea For Two – now both rated in the 150’s in their respective code) to leaping over the sticks then he is going to be some animal. Get on, troops.

Good luck all.

I Am Not Here can take the opener at Newcastle 3/1.He ran well in a class 2 race recently at Kempton and this class 4 should be his for the taking. Not the greatest card at HQ so watching brief only.

Cracking finish at Chelts, and another for the Tizzard team who can do little wrong at the moment. Out Sam took a horrible looking fall, yet no mention of his wellbeing, hope he is ok.

Nice to see Balshazar King being paraded, always good knowing the old warriors are being cared for in the retirement <ok>

paddy doing his mates on the line -- I'm sure that team fergal won't be too upset !
 
A serious gamble going on on Valhalla. Was 8/1 an hour ago now 7/2. I am on at 8s.
 
Cheers STH!Im always on the look out for a horse dropping in grade!In the next at Dundalk Chesnut Ben will be hard to peg back in the and a hatrick beckons:2/1 is short enough but happy to take in this case.In 7.35 Minot Street hasn't shown much this year but won four times over C&D a couple of years ago and looks to be on a very leniant Mark.Not super confident but willing to have punt that he can find some of the old magic again at 7s!

Poor horse is painfully underfed and then has the insult of carrying that fat ugly biach around as punishment-Throw her to the wolves I say,they can feast off her for a few months and keep warm.
Ah ffs Chesnut beaten in a photo finish-jockey switched him to late
