    Well done guys and Kemboy - What a star!
    Pluralism of Ideas and the prosperity of any land are intertwined. Freedom of minds and skill of intellect to 'think the unthinkable' is how humanity has progressed; when minds are incarcerated nothing endures.

    Just the one glass of champagne but home now and the San Miguel has an extra bite. Just make sure you get to Punchestown.

    Thanks to everyone for all the kind words.

    Will be working on that Archie!

    I'm also involved in Defy De Mee who goes in the 4.10 at Wexford. Slightly different to yesterday, but he's an obvious chance though Lethal Steps will be a big danger

    A shame about Defy but good to hear he was unscathed.

    What a thrill to see Cadmium fly round the National course yesterday and what a horse he's been for us. Since his debut over fences in January last year he's run 14 times for 6 wins, 2 second, 2 third, 3 fourth and 1 fifth when he wasn't right. The longest break he's had is 63 days and his winning mark of 133 at Punchestown last year had gone up to 152 yesterday (joint highest winning mark this century for the Topham) and will presumably be a few pounds more on Monday.
    The older I get the better I was.

    Yep great performance from Cadmium

    I feared after Defy's fall as looked bad and never good to come down at the front of a field, but thankfully he's fine and hopefully out again in 2/3 weeks

    Hopefully Raisin returns safe and sound. Best of luck
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Thanks. He needs to run really, he’s getting WAY too cocky - he worked this morning and ten minutes after he was put away he was bucking and kicking round his stable

    I hope Raisen has a current success.

    Defy De Mee takes his chance again in the 5.20 at Ballinrobe tomorrow. Looks a weak enough heat so hoping he goes very close

    Good luck!!!

    Raisin has been given 25 as his ballot number so I’ll be fairly surprised if he didn’t get in on Sunday - if anyone is at wincanton, do come and take my mind off things, you won’t miss me A crazy hair and trying to control a child while not throwing up!!

    I've tried him but not had a response which is unusual.

    I'll try him again and if I can't get him I'll try and get hold of Paul F.
