Moment of truth for Chaperoned

It is wonderful to come back from the holidays to a weekend’s racing like we have ahead of us and in particular, the card at Leopardstown tomorrow.

I had a wonderful time skiing in France and not even waiting six hours at the airport because of the four hour delay due to the Aer Lingus strike could put me in bad mood.

Everything at home was fine and the horses are in good order. The quality races are coming thick and fast now both here and across the water and we certainly have some real top class action tomorrow with Leopardstown’s four Grade 1 races and a terrific supporting programme as well.
