Constitution Hill will be seventh horse since 1991 to run on the flat after winning the Champion Hurdle following on from Sublimity, Hardy Eustace, Collier Bay, Alderbrook, Flakey Dove and Morley Street. Only two are since 1996. Only Flakey Dove won although Alderbrook was second in a Group 1 and 2.

Two races I've never seen footage of before, The 1971 and 1973 Champion Chases. Inkslinger is the last horse to win two different races at the same Cheltenham Festival as he also won the Cathcart. www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5Dm... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja07...

My efforts to see every Graded, Group and Listed race in Britain delayed until next year with the abandonment of the new Listed Berymoss Novices’ Steeple Chase at Kelso. Hopefully, I'll see the other six Listed races I'm missing this year. Graded and Group races are done unless another one comes in!

Galopin Des Champs will try to regain the Cheltenham Gold Cup. However no 10yo has won since Cool Dawn in 1998 and before that Cool Ground in 1992. The record of 10yos in the race at 8/1 or less is shocking.

1/2 Some interesting aspects of the John McCririck age discrimination case were the damming comments the judge made about two senior executives at Channel Four. They were Jamie Aitchison the commissioning editor for sport and Jay Hunt the chief creative officer.

A very long and important THREAD -
The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
