    Sorry to deviate away from the festival but in the next at Southwell Greyfriarschorista runs at 22/1. It ran yesterday was well fancied went off favourite and ran like a dog. The fact that they're still running it today stands out to me so well worth an ew at the prices with 3 places on offer.

    Agree 100% Reebok. Have to say am very impressed with the sportsmanship and gracious words in defeat by Henry de Bromhead and Willie Mullins. Bravo to both. I am still shaking my head to make sure I'm not dreaming, to win this after having heart trouble. Incredible racehorse.

    Oh ... they are still going ahead with the egg & spoon race ... thought they might have decided that nothing could top the QM and cancelled it!

    Well Josies Orders should take this, but I don't mind losing if Balty wins. Not sure my ticker could stand another fairytale result :)

    Yeah wasn't even a contest. You have to be dissapointed with UDS, fair enough he was beat by a great horse, but you'd have thought he'd be able to run to a much higher level than he did. He's just scrambled to beat Special Tiara narrowly in the end.

    Days like today make me feel sorry for people who don't like racing.
    They really don't know what they are missing!
