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.

👀 Nicky Henderson on LULAMBA [right] and PALLADIUM [left]: “They are both in the Adonis on Saturday. One will run. “Lulamba is terribly well and he would have to have a racecourse gallop. “Lulamba has only had two runs in his life, so it just occurred. “Palladium, with the way he’s been working and schooling, does he really need to [have the run]? “He’s done a mountain of racing. He might just be better where he is, but I don’t know. “They’re both going to work tomorrow and then we’ll decide.” #HorseRacing | #CheltenhamFestival | Nicky Henderson

🔴 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.”

✅ 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.

What would we do without jumps racing, ay? Two horses, locked in a ding-dong battle, flying over the last at full pace. Vintage national hunt racing.
