    Thing is though, call it off and you've still got 20,000 Irishmen wandering around Cheltenham. This way they're all in the same place!

    I know I looked at Sire Du Berlais yesterday and didn't fancy it and it did mine up the run-in. If it wins it'll be one I shrug my shoulders at and say I didn't fancy it. Ques Sara :)

    If any Irish owners and trainers ever moan about their handicap marks ever again, then they can **** off.

    They're winning everything with a stone in hand.

    Brought back bad memories for me of when Annie Power did the same.

    So.

    Cheltenham Day One 1 win from 7 (2/1) -4 points
    Cheltenham DayTwo 4 wins from 6 (4/7, 4/1, 5/1, 15/2) and one non-runner +15 points (Cumulative: +11 points)
    Cheltenham Day Three 1 win from 7 (2/1) -4 points (Cumulative +7 points)
    Cheltenham Day Four 1 win from 7 (10/3) -2.7 points (Cumulative +4.3 points)

    Six Timeform top-rated winners and eight favourites. My tally was seven, so in between. 26% winners (7 from 27); 15.3% profit on stakes (+4.3 from 28 points invested).

    Goshen - don't you feel for poor Jamie Moore? Can happen to anyone - remember Ruby? Mullins was sensational today and Paul Townend quite brilliant, especially on Al Boum Photo in the Gold Cup. An absolute feast for the senses before we enter what looks like a dark tunnel for several weeks. But viva Cheltenham!

    **** ride by Johnson on Thyme Hill. **** ride by Nico De Boinville on Santini and **** ride by Harry Cobden on Granaeteen.

    If all those jockeys could ride their race again they'd ride winners.

    Richard Johnson rode a cantering horse into trouble twice. Nico De Boinville switched over 3 miles 2 in a chase in a uphill finish. You come with a clear run.

    Then Harry Cobden went for rail run. Horses fell in front of him and he switches when race had gone.

    Had a good week but it's sickening when bad rides and not bad horses cost you brass.
