I didn’t get to see Roberto Goldback just getting chinned on the line in the Kinloch Brae in Thurles on Thursday as I was skiing at the time and it’s probably just as well because from what I heard, he was terribly unlucky.

The good thing about being involved in horse racing is that you don’t get a complex about things going wrong for you. Racing is a great leveller so you’re just used to things not going your way.

YESTERDAY’S journey north to Down Royal was certainly worthwhile and any day you have a treble is a very good one.
