    Thought the coverage was much better today. Still think some of the graphics could be better - any why not include the sire/dam on the info graphic about a horse

    The Opening Show was interesting - visit to Kingsclere and interview with JO'B (I don't think he said "listen" once!)

    Opted for the latter and lost my cash but happy they've retired the horse. Short of top drawer but on his day a very decent performer who won over £500k in prize money.

    I remember he got Big Bucks off the bridle for a short while at Ascot until the great horse had a little chuckle and went about 15L clear eventually. Beautiful horse, Dynaste, who did win a Ryanair in his time over fences.

    A well-earned retirement after a cool half a million in prize money.
