I was at Fontwell on Friday for The Hunt Ball Day . Now - as if you didn't know - Hunt Ball is the second favorite for The Paddy Power and the horse was paraded - bit like George was at Kempton - and I've got to say he looked in great nick .
Roll on next week !
I met up there with a long standing ( and suffering ) mate of mine - Roger ( another Roger ) Farnsworth . He's a bit of a shrewdy when it comes to this game and he was adamant that he knew the winner of the last . Anyway this thing won at 12-1 ! And was I on ? Na !! But well done Rog !
However - I did ( well - everyone did ) back DPs winner in the big race at Wincanton . The Package was backed down from 8s in the morning to about 4s ( I got 5s ) and he duly obliged . He won in the colors of David Johnson - who hasn't been in the best of health lately - so that would have cheered him up .
DP also confirmed that George is heading to Cheltenham next Saturday for The Paddy Power . The vibes from the stable are very positive - but they were last March for the RSA ! Anyway - it should be an exciting day and just hope he gets there in rude health . He should win but the odds are a bit skinny at about 3-1 .
