The new-look winter program hits full speed this weekend in Ireland, and I should be bouncing off the walls with the excitement of what lies in store today, but instead, I can't help wondering if no one has been paying attention.

National Hunt racing is not just a national sport, but it's not very international either. It's Ireland, England and France, but from a fan point of view, it's Ireland and England.
