Today was my last day of freedom - a day watching other owners suffer - as I will have to tomorrow . Today was day one of Cheltenham and it certainly didn't disappoint .
DP started with a win in the first - courtesy of Dynaste - in a novice chase won by George last year . He's also a lovely grey and won like a real goodun ! Very exciting for their owners who were too nervous to watch ! They seemed more relaxed watching the replay..... with a glass of champers in their hand !
Then we ( sorry DP ) struck in the last - in the colors of David Johnson ( same ownership as with The Package who won at Wincanton last week ) at the odds of 14-1 . I would like to say that we 'fancied it' and were all 'on' - but in truth - though I did have a tenner ew - thought that at the age of eleven the old boy was a bit passed it ! Nice to be so wrong .
So on to tomorrow and thank you all for your 'good luck' messages. It would - obviously - be great to win - and he should - God willing ! CU
