Cheltenham - Tuesday

Aaaah they've switched!

So who is everyone on today? Can anyone beat Min in the first? I'm on Altior, lovely horse that he is!
 
I'm torn for the Champion Hurdle. I'd like a mare to win and I think Annie Power is fab..but I'd be very happy if The New One won.

I'm counting down the minutes to leave work and race home!
 
Just catching up as had to (slowly and painfully) work until lunchtime so enjoying the +1 coverage....Altior - what a star, head down and kept going. Think everyone at work is pleased ive got the rest of the week off so wont be boring them!
 
I think work was happy to see the back of me too - I was driving them all nuts! Right - next race! What are we all on? I'd love to see Theatre Guide win :)
 
Back at work after watching the first two fantastic races on my lunch hour (carefully planned). Got the live news feed on, it says Theatre Guide fell in the last race, can anyone tell me if he got up OK?

Edited to add that I was happy that I backed the winner of the last but can't celebrate until I know he's OK
 
All that I need to do now is buy a lottery ticket, win the roll-over, and then buy the mare Annie Power. She isn't for sale? Oh yes she is at the money that I'd offer! :) She would then go smartly off to stud.

Who would we use? That's the question! :) For me it would be Presenting, unless a better horse can be suggested!! :)

Has anyone heard how The Governess is? A Hideous fall. :( The poor girl.

Annie is just amazing and I very much doubt any amount of money would buy her and I for one hope and imagine that she will stay in training for a few more years, would be a waste to go to stud now.

Just read The Governess was put down :(
 
Desperate news. And again, we should have our thoughts focussed on those who tonight will go home alone, and will face an empty stable tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow will be another day, but ……..

Prize of the day must go to Desert Queen for walking over every hurdle bar two! How did she stay upright?!

Don't think she will take to fences or will require a very brave jockey to give it a go!!!

I'll admit that she went through just about every hurdle, but I wonder if she may show fences a little more respect. She certainly shows a worrying level of disregard for the present obstacles!
