Plus 11 and drizzling when driving in. 10mm last night

Kevin Blake needs to get back in his box after his uncalled for remarks. No sooner than he had mouthed off about English trainers than they had five winners yesterday.

It was great day for the Brits yesterday and the best was saved to nearly the last when Jeremy Scott won the mares novice hurdle.

The Cheltenham crowds was pleased to be able to applaud their great victories.

The Tattersalls Sales last night were out of my reach. Twice underbidder but that is life.. I tried.. It poured with rain during the sale which meant the casual viewer was soon off so at least we could dee what we were bidding for!

Peter Kerr, Mat and Maya said their lunch party at Thorndale yesterday was a resounding success.. something we will probably do again.

Back today for the last of the 4 days. And it will be the biggest. In fact it needs to be as the crowds seemed to have been down so far.
