Cheltenham Day 4

I see Dodging Bullets has retired, well done them a good call. I thought Native River ran a blinder, gutted for Cue Card but he lives to fight another day, hope they give up on a Gold Cup next year. I still cant see anything beating Coneygree or Thistlecrack for next year if they both turn up.
 
I picked up some of the R5L commentary for the last races of he day while I was in the car going to the horse. Charlie Poste and Andrew Thornton were excellent especially Charlie I thought. John Inverdale on the other hand is an idiot. His comments about Victoria Penddletons riding of PdP last year were utterly ridiculous, suggesting if she had ridden him like Byrony Fox has today she too would have won and therefore it was her inexperience that cost him the race last year. What a dick head he is.

Also Tommo interviewing Ruby -
DT so what will you do now the racing is over Ruby?
RW I'm off to try and find my wife
DT so where is she Ruby ?
RW I don't know Tommo that's why I'm trying to find her.
DT if you are listening to the radio Ruby's wife he is here in the parade ring

He really doesn't get any better does he? Good old thommo! Horses aside I have really enjoyed the commentary etc from ITV and think they have done the festival justice. Good to see Brough Scott back on our screens too....his voice always brings me back to the old days!
 
Didn't see the coverage yesterday but had an accumulator bet. The aptly named "No Comment" let me down for 50k :D
