Return is approx 1 hour after the last race at 6pm. Subject to everyone being happy with this, I was going to ask the driver if he could stop at a pub for a sharp half on the way back (there are one or two OK boozers just south of Kiddy ) This should mean us getting back into Town at about 9-9.30pm. Couple of things Terry, last race is 5.20pm on Thursday. Do you know the Fruiteers pub just north of Ombersley I will have a word on Saturday

Whats going on Terry/Reg www.wpmullins.com/cheltenham_team.htmScroll down the page to read about the horse. The article (and the betting for the two races) are inconclusive, but I suppose the removal of Best Mate opens out the Gold Cup a bit and may sway him towards that one. That would mean you wouldn't see it run in the flesh:P

Had a quick check with my moles from the Emerald Isle , and they are all of the opinion having seen the Leopardstown race that wherever Rule Supreme finishes, it will be behind Beef or Salmon. But thats not to say they wont be first and second, or second and third, so have an each way bash at it They seem convinced he was going for the Gold cup whether Best Mate ran or not

My mole in the Emerald Isle says the ground at Leopardstown that day was soft, hence Beef or Salmon winning. Cheltenham looks like been Good Rule Supreme to finish in front of Beef or Salmon

I seem to recall that the beancounter was going to share his unrivalled knowledge with us all prior to the festival starting.
When can we expect these pearls of wisdom ?. I need to commit them to memory in order to ensure that my retribution is swift and appropriate.
