    Ballinrobe Tuesday

    What a fantastic race card for a May NH meet.
    50k handicap hurdle and a 50k handicap chase; a novice chase featuring Wicklow Brave among others.
    Hats off to management and sponsors for making the effort.
    Many UK trainers should take note.

    Wicklow Brave over a fence

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

    Nice card for a Ballinrobe evening meeting. Fair play to them. I hope they get the crowds in to support it.

    I've had an ew trixie at Ballinrobe tonight.

    Didn't realise till I saw on facebook that he'd won. Such a favourite of mine. Looks like he won easily. I'll be nervously following him in his new career.
