I'm fucking pissed as a cunt so I'll post tonight's notes tomorrow although this prob get better from a paper.

 

Got a photo taken with Geraghty so that's going on the wall.

 

He was bigging up Sprinter Sacre all night. Says he was in a bad state up until end November bit since then has a serious sparkle back in him. Personally I think n it's a bit of smoke and vagina so we'll see.

 

Jessica H was very quiet but fancied Road to Riches e/w in the GC and top notch in the triumph. All I can remember off hand do fuck yourselves with a hedgehog

Obviously at an Irish event they're going to big up their own horses, but I think general rule of Irish over British isn't bad at this festival. Davy Russell said a few days ago he'd be absolutely amazed if the Irish didn't win every single Novice race, and he was laughing when other people (at whatever event he was at) were putting up some of the Henderson/Nicholls fancies like Ma Filleule,Vibrato Valtat etc.

 

You also, with Nicholls' horses, have to remember the Nick Schofield rule. If he's on it, you don't bet on it. The useless shit fucking cunt.

Pendra in the first handicap chase, 2:40, on the first day.

 

Has apparently been laid out for this race and expected to improve dramatically for a recent wind operation.

 

Has come right in from 12s to 7/1, with a lot of the money on it rumoured to be from its owner, J P McManus, who of famous for his Cheltenham punts.
