We had a fabulous few days at Cheltenham. Top class racing and good fun people, finished off with wonderful evening meals in the Cotswolds discussing the days winners/losers with fellow racing enthusiasts. I just love it but appreciate that we were lucky it went ahead due to the corona virus. Sadly it looks as though the Oakley has been called off for this reason. Just when it looks as though the ground is improving and the horses are flying - Grrrr!  Still, it is much worse for the yards where they are running the horses as a proper business as this could finish them. There is very little money in the job anyway so my thoughts are with them.
