    Had a small piece of Beat That today. First run back, deserted by Geraghty, giving weight away. But a very nice type and we don't yet know if Vaniteux will transfer his obvious class to the longer trip, or whether he just lacks a bit of speed at the finish. It is conceivable that Geraghty has made an error on a marginal call.

    Put's The New One's performances this season into perspective.

    Rock on Ruby was an absolute good thing today.

    Well done ROR backers, what a fantastic horse he is. Ground not ideal today either so even better performance

    The reason behind this move for Camlann in the bumper is because the Shark was on ATR over Christmas and said he thinks this is something special. 11/4 now though. Pretty skinny in a juvenile bumper.

    3 really good bumpers to end the day at Cheltenham, Exeter and Fairyhouse. That one at Exeter looks particularly hot.I'll have a small stakes trixie on Wishfull Dreaming, Drucilla and Jetstream Jack.

    I find a lot of the Irish bumper runners at Cheltenham apart from the festival meeting are always over bet or a move over exaggerated, even Mullins sends a few duds over that always get smashed in the November meeting for some reason year after year and they end up tailed off.

    Well done on Wishfull Dreaming Oddy, think you flagged him up on debut too so fair play for getting rewarded, he stuck at it well today.

    Luckily it was quite testing today mate, I thought it might be a bit on the short side for him but like you said, he stuck on well up the hill. <cheers>
