I thought there was a great deal of really good jumping at the Kempton meeting over Christmas, many (most) of the horses jumped really, really well and the racing was spectacular and exciting.
Who's been watching the racing?

Great wasn't it. A bit like the wonderful Tingle Creek.

My friends horse Blue Heron came in 3rd in the Xmas hurdle, made most of the running, he's one to watch for the future, lovely stamp of a horse.

Yeah he was unlucky to finish 3rd, looks promising!

I was too late to see Kauto Star parade unfortunately [I think]. I don't really like his bronze, to me a bronze should be ........ bronze, and its placement has sidelined the great Desert Orchid to some degree.
