    Very well done Reebok, great call <applause>

    My selection never looked like posing a threat at any point.

    FFS that looked very generous indeed 2 out as the fav cruised into the lead (backers must have been prematurely counting their winnings). Can't believe the jockey couldn't get that home.

    Looked like the idiot jockey onboard thought he had won the race and just wanted to cruise the last furlong and got beat by a late rally!

    That was my impression. If I had backed it I think I would have not been happy with the jockey.

    Good performance by good ol' Victory Gunner there. Like Unoccupied here in Cork.

    JT McNamara update:

    &#8220;JT McNamara remains in the Intensive Care Unit at Frenchay Hospital, Bristol. He is in a stable condition and his level of sedation is being reduced. Whilst his vertebral damage remains serious, he has not suffered a brain injury. His wife Caroline and family very much appreciate all the messages, cards and letters that have been received. There will be no further update this week.&#8221;

    Issued jointly by Dr Adrian McGoldrick, Irish Turf Club Senior Medical Officer and Lisa Hancock, CEO, Injured Jockeys Fund on behalf of the McNamara Family.

    PRESENTING LAZARUS is interesting in the Cork bumper simply because trainer Harry Kelly has a strike rate in bumpers even better than the legend that is Willie Mullins

    It's no laughing matter I know but do you think there is any irony when a jockey is described as being in a "stable" condition?
    Thoughts are with the poor lad of course and his family. Fingers crossed for some good news from this story in the coming weeks!

    22lbs lower than when winning over course and distance just over two years ago but his run last time looked like one of a horse that had big problems. I hope I am wrong if you are among the hordes backing him but frankly I would rather be on his stablemate PAHENTE. Yard just won the 7.00 so no problem with their wellbeing, they have been winning for fun in recent weeks. Good luck if you are on Bluesky, Heis et al.
