What does anyone think would happen to these horses if they didn't race, they wouldn't be skipping through green fields together, likelihood is they wouldn't get born at all or would face a life of gruelling hard work followed by the glue factory or pie shop when they were knackered, this way they are treated like kings and then put out to stud, I know what I'd prefer.

Got 1st and 5th btw, got 1st 2nd 4th & 5th last year, if I'd backed Ruby Walsh last year I'd have retired as I had it as a forecast. Still £70 in profit isn't to be sniffed at this year. I think only three times since 1987 have I failed to win money on this race.
