    Fayoonagh - very good mare.Schooling very well, out in 3/4 weeks in maiden, aim her for mares hurdle at Down Royal


    Apple's Jade - In great form, Lisa O'Neill rides her out. Start in Down Royal,improves for racing. May be better over 3 miles. Only 5


    Death Duty - Good horse, didn't travel well to Cheltenham. Soft ground helps him. Shouldn't of run him at Cheltenham


    Poli Roi - will make smashing 2.5 to 3m hurdler. Good horse over a trip


    Minellafordollars - laid back, likes that he won his Navan bumper like a good horse


    Blow By Blow - Cantering way, go hurdling


    Samcro - We love him, very laid back. he stays and doesn't lack gears


    Mr Lingo - massive scopey horse, looks impressive


    Defi Blue - second in p2p2 to flemenshill. 1 or 2 bumpers this year


    When pushed he said Samcro looked the class horse of his bumper crop last year

    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    It was at about 11.00 and I think he'd already done his work.

    I'd say the recent quotes about the 'stars' are pretty accurate but the majority of the festival horses have only been in for about 8 weeks and, while they are cantering away, they are still a few weeks away from fast work. Douvan and Min looked very well.

    He'd just worked when we got there and was being washed down. Looked ok but, as I said, at this time of their preparation all that even stable staff know is that the horse has four legs, eats up and processes it properly.

    Update on Potts horses from Saturday: Finian’s Oscar very unlikely to run at Cheltenham, Alary to be sent back to France and Vision Des Flos had small cut on leg after Persian War Hurdlebut nothing serious.
