    No joy on the deep sand but the winner is some tool.

    Out of 27 races, he picked up prize-money in 25 this year totalling approx £1580k.

    Steady on with Bsllyburn. He is a long long way behind a lot of Cheltenham novice who came out as above average but in years only 3 could you mention in the same breath as Dawn Run..Faugheen Constitution Hill and Altior.

    You’ve got to be impressed, though. Ballyburn leads the “Cheltenham take outs” list for me.

    I'd be surprised if he wasn't sore afterwards too, he gave the 7th fence some clout.
