Did he run Trudi - couldn't see anything in the results?
Freedom to Dream is out tomorrow at Naas - we need to see a little more spark...
Have it on good authority that Sky Lord (3.30 Leop) is a bit special.
Separately, and just an observation, this may be the day Karuma Grey (2.40 Limerick) starts his winning sequence
Am I crazy for thinking that a horse who finished 4th in the Martin Pipe off 135 should not be 25/1 in tomorrow's race off a 126 rating? Probably!...
Thanks Paddy! This blog has kept me from my first pint....http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2023/9/19/if-at-first
How’s your chap doing Paul?
Thanks for asking; he returned to the yard today and seems fine. Won't be much to report for 9-10 weeks - we will know if it's retirement or potential return to...
Good luck tonight. Will you be there?
Many thanks for the good wishes. Things are looking a little better. Here's a blog complete with x-ray and a video from this morning...
Not a thread I ever wanted to write on. Just a quick update on Suprise Package after his win at Cork yesterday. He was sore last night and it turns out he has broken his leg. I was at the stables...
Thanks for the good wishes everyone. Yesterday was one of the good days; today is one of the bad ones. He was sore last night and it urns out he has broken his leg. I was at the stables when the vet...
Let's grab a drink Eddie if we get chance. I will be there before Race 1
If we had a plan then tomorrow, at Cork, is when it might come together:D http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2023/8/6/planning-the-craic
Good luck Eddie!
I almost put this in the Flat horses to note for the Season thread:lol: Off to Ballinrobe for another spin on the Flat tomorrow. www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2023/7/23/6-six-is-the-number
Trying the Flat tomorrow as part of Suprise Package's return to the track; just hope he comes back well. http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2023/7/11/7drx19u8oaa0yqttwpwqv4oh6bm4n6
We're hoping for a bit more sparkle from Freedom to Dream at Limerick tomorrow. http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2023/5/24/if-we-win-its-me-and-peter-if-we-lose-its-just-peter
He seemed absolutely ok after the race. We'll see how he is this morning but it all seems ok. Still the plan to go to Aintree but may squeeze another race in. (and great to see you, as well)
Thanks for the messages guys. He is obviously not himself and we will be giving him a full MOT. No point in planning anything until we have him right. He looked very lethargic (even in the parade...
The racing this weekend at the DRF is off the charts. I am so lucky to have a horse running on the same day as the best Novice Chase we have seen for years. We will need some luck but, at his best,...
Freedom to Dream off to Punchestown tomorrow. Hoping to repeat last year's win the Red Mills Final....
Congratulations Art. Won it very well and 2nd was well clear. Good luck with her.
Suprise Package is moving into Grade 1 territory on Friday - it's all pretty amazing but, according to Timeform and the Racing Post, he deserves to take his chance. It's all too much for me and it's...
Well, I've certainly done it Colm! A surreal feeling and one that I am very very unlikely to experience again. It is truly a Cheltenham Dream...
Some more ramblings as Suprise Package heads to the Imperial Cup http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2022/3/11/confidently-realistic
Couldn't find the Forum Horse Connections thred so posting this here http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/2022/2/4/a-fantastic-weekend-awaits. Both horses go and I hope to see a few of you there.
