The Craddockstown

We've only one race to go on, but the early 9/2 is a bit too big to resist about Henry de Bromhead's Days Hotel in tomorrow's Craddockstown Novice Chase at Punchestown.

Look at the picture:

"He did it well. We always felt chasing would be his game."

Chasing was always going to be his game, apparently.

On debut the trainer helpfully informed us that he did it well, brushing aside a fancied one of Tony Martin's.

I'm going to have to stop talking like this.

The fields may be small, and Hurricane Fly may not be running, but the Morgiana meeting is always worth a look, especially for jumps fans still buzzing in the aftergow of Kauto Star's dazzling run at Haydock today.
