Very sobering day of action at Kempton today. Found this video of Kalif Du Berlais from this summer, and the way he poked his head out of the box made me chuckle. Incredibly sad what happened today. Thoughts with the Paul Nicholls OBE team at this time.

🔴 Dan Skelton on GREY DAWNING: “He definitely stayed the trip there. “I needed to run. I’ve trained him for the Gold Cup this year, and I’m not going to get to the 11th hour and forget it. “We’re happy with the fact that we’ve got a run under the belt.”

👀 James Owen after East India Dock: “We’ve got one at home that might be better than this fella - that’s Lavender Hill Mob. “He was better on the Flat, he schools well, and he goes on soft ground. “He’ll be running in early December.” One to watch.

🟡 Barry Connell on MARINE NATIONALE: “Sean [Flanagan] said it rode heavy, and he never really travelled the first mile - he’s never run on heavy ground before. “I wanted to support the race, and that’s why I ran him, but it wasn’t ideal conditions.“

✅ BRAVEMANSGAME dropped 2lbs for his Denman Chase run to a mark of 155. That’s 15lbs lower than the mark he was on for the 2024 Cheltenham Gold Cup and 17lbs lower than his peak (172). Does he have a live chance in the Grand National? #HorseRacing

I was quietly impressed by Regent’s Stroll today, even in defeat. Three runs in just over a month is plenty, and maybe he was just feeling it. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Jack Richards is his Cheltenham target, much like Caldwell Potter. Shortlist.

Andy Cummins Andrew Halligan Racing Had fun digging this one out. This was the reasoning for awarding Good Time Jonny his hurdling mark a few seasons ago when he was 10lbs lower over fences in Ireland.
