Day of near misses

All Pond House horses ran really well on day one at Cheltenham - alas though - without winning ! Best result was the Brookhouse owned Champaign West - trained by Philip Hobbs - who won the novice chase - a race won 4years ago by Grands Crus . Brookhouse was in great form - as is his horses - and I recon this one is destined for the top .
I'm sort've growing a beard at the moment - Lady Caroline ( and I'm sure Carol will say the same today ) that it's looking a bit 'scruffy' ! I said it was my 'Brookhouse ' look !
And so on to today . Geoffrey is about 20-1 in the early markets - and perhaps that's about right . But with cheek pieces back on we are looking for a big improvement ! It will have to be ! CU
