It was really good to be back at Cheltenham yesterday. Love the place..Great racing and full of people.
No runners and a family day with Archie.. he took me to Dunkertons for a post race drink.. he works there at weekends..
Auction prizes are popular.. certainly when it comes to a 'morning on the gallops and breakfast'.. anyway I bought one at a non racing charity charity evening a year ago and yesterday I wore it..A new suit made y Jack Winslade of McCann’s..

Nun1 : Oh that’s easy Adam
Dun da da the gates open and she goes through.
Nun 2: Oh that is an easy one: Eve
