    The Cheltenham listed bumper form looks worth following .................... Cap Soleil followed up her debut success with a hard-fought victory over the Potensis-owned Daphne Du Clos, who ran an absolue cracker. The Nicholls horse in 3rd confirmed the favourable impression from his debut and Mark Pitman's Sea The Stars gelding Sea Sovereign (who once sold for half a million) stepped up markedly on his debut effort to grab 4th, these 4 well clear of the rest.

    A couple of things warmed the old heart today - firstly Cole Harden who jumped superbly back over hurdles and just got tired in the ground - certainly not a forlorn hope for the Stayers Hurdle - and lovely to see Malcolm Denmark have a winner in the Fairyhouse bumper.

    Maybe I'm missing something but she really isn't all that in my opinion - give me Venetia any day of the week <laugh>

    Bryan Cooper fractured his pelvis yesterday after falling from Arkwrisht in the beginners at Punchy. Feck me, at this rate he's fastly becoming the Darren Anderton of horse racing!

    Thankly won well and bailed me out of jail again.Another shocker from Roi de Francs,ive lost some dough on that pig over the years.No real Cheltenham pointners for March today; Ltown at the end of the month is the next meeting im looking forward to.Across codes that was some scorpianesque finish from Giroud today. I'll give that a try at astro during the week but will most likely balls it up and look like a right bell end!
