🤝 It may be flat season and they're racing at Goodwood rather than Cheltenham but just wanted to say a huge thank you to followers. I set this page up with one intention - to provide jumps racing updates, news and trainer quotes in one place... I never thought that over 50,000 people would get involved and follow the account. It's been a blast chatting and meeting many of you over the past few years and long may it continue. 😍 Thank you for the support, I'll be in second gear until October when things really start to ramp up. BRING ON THE JUMPS!

🌟 Paul Townend on KOPEK DES BORDES, per betway: "It’s no secret that coming here off the back of one run over fences isn’t ideal, but this horse has a serious level of ability, so if anybody can win an Arkle on just their second chase start it’s him."
