Hearing Limini is out for the NH season and is likely to either run on the flat in the summer (Ebor is an option) or be retired to the breeding sheds. Been a tough couple of years for Rich Ricci with the death of Vatour, Annie Power retiring, Douvan out for an extended period and Faugheens problems as well as losing a 6 figure purchase in an acciddnt on the gallops.
Arctic Fire has also been retired.

Thistlecrack out for the season. Stress fracture.
Yet again proving how hard it is to produce consistently great champions in NH racing.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Just a wee mention for the very sad news that another favourite of mine, Taquin Du Seuill, suffered a fatal fall at Huntingdon. A really good horse on his day and a Cheltenham winner, it's just another sad reminder of how cruel racing can be.

I see Liam Treadwell has retired due in part to ongoing mental and physical issues after a fall a couple of years ago.
In the list of toughest sportsmen national hunt jockeys must be pretty close to the top and injuries like Treadwell are a reminder of how dangerous a sport it can be.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Woop woop! Mr Antolini in the Imperial Cup (20/1) £5 e/w! In fairness, I thought he was quite lucky to keep it, he clearly bumped the 2nd just before the line but I'll take it.

Thunder Snow wins the Dubai World Cup comfortably. Top race in terms of prize money, but doesn't have anything like the prestige as the top races in Europe or the US. Funny, I remember Thunder Snow when he was racing over here. He was beaten out of sight by Carravagio as a two year old at Royal Ascot, and I thought O'Brien would train Carravagio for mile/mile and a quarter races after that performance, where he was clearly staying on at the end, instead of which he trained him as a sprinter and the season finished as a damp squib and he was retired to stud.

Irish National today and Mongbeg Notorious carries my money. Grade 2 winning novice with a nice weight.

An Elliott winner of the Irish Grand National, not that surprising really when you consider he had 13 of the runners in the race. It's getting like all those Sheikh Mohammed races at the likes of Newmarket in the 90's and early 2000's where every horse was owned either by him or a member of his family.

Just bought tickets for Champions Day at Ascot. £45 for the Winning Post Enclosure which seems reasonable for the quality of racing.

Sad news from Paul Nicholls tonight.
Silviniaco Conti has died after an accident whilst team chasing at the weekend. Vets thought he would be fine but he took a bad turn today and had to be PTS.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I was reading The Giants Causeway has died in Kentucky aged 21.
I'm not a huge fan of the flat but he was a monster of a horse, never knew when he was beat and never finished outside the top 2.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Giants Causeway was one of my all time favourite horses, probably the toughest I’ve ever seen. A sad loss.

That was some performance by Masar in The Craven Stakes, highly impressive.
