In 2025, both horses win again at the home of jumps racing 🥹

🏆 Jazzy Matty - Grand Annual
Throwback to 2017 when Un De Sceaux’s owner said on a Cheltenham preview that he was worried that Cheltenham wasn’t getting enough rain… 🌧️
So Davy Russell called a local hotel for a weather update… the reaction is priceless 🤣
@racingblogger@gelliott_racing Anyone know who’s the horse he mentions being supplemented for the Gold Cup? One of Gavin Cromwell’s maybe, couldn’t make it out?
Absolutely devastating news to hear Michael O’Sullivan has passed away. My thoughts are with his family, friends. When you go that door to race you all want to come back in it together, his peg now sits empty for all the wrong reasons, thinking of all the Irish weighing room. ❤️
Heartbreaking news.
Jockey Michael O’Sullivan has died after failing to recover from the injuries he suffered in a fall at Thurles on February 6.
Our thoughts and sympathy to all his family and many friends.
