It was really good wasn't it. Gale force winds and very soft ground he travelled along well and came there full of running. A nice future in store.
Won in a hack-canter after being in front all the way. Unbelievably, was not the favourite, another one was backed to beat it. Market got it all wrong. Isaac Des Obeaux is a very talented young hurdler, and should be very successful in NH racing in the future. One to keep a watchful eye on, for sure! Cool ride from the young conditional Angus Cheleda.
Jungle Boogie is an interesting runner In this isn't he. Unbeaten and hardly broke sweat in winning so far. I wonder is he up to the standard required to push the favourite into knowing he has had a race.
Shocking video on X of the brawl at Aintree. Loads of men drinking all day - what can possibly go wrong?
