What chance have the uk novice chasers got when they're competing in 2 runner events and walkovers in beginner chases where any beginners in Ireland has 16+ runners and likely a few graded animals?
Had a brilliant day yesterday @LeopardstownRC for day 1 of Irish Champions weekend. The weather played ball, the racing was brilliant and there was no issue getting a pint. Looking forward to next year already!
Took a little bit of the 33s Hotazhell for the Irish Champion. Beat the fav last year, rain in its favour, not got loads to find on Sandown run where was too free.
Don't know what they're doing with Jonquil. Looked to me like it wanted further after rallying to go down a neck to Henri Matisse over 1m in France after racing handy, think he wants a trip but may be proven wrong tuesday.
