Ruby-after Annie Power is beaten in a short-head finish by Zarkander-admits that the reason he left Nicholls was that he realised he was only the second beat jockey in the stable and that he reached the stage where he knew that Daryl had the psychological edge on him.(At this admission on camera Ted is moved to tears by the sheer embarassing candour of his young son)

Channel 4 realise that a dozen drunks with a tricolour doesn't mean the rest of us care about the Britain vs Ireland winner-count, especially if the latest Irish winner in question started at 28/1 because only the stable lad's mum backed it.

After Hurricane Fly romps home in his third Champion Hurdle, with a 7-way dead-heat for second, Lydia realises the only reason the Fly is still competitive at ten years old is that this is a weak year with all his over-hyped rivals taking it in turn to beat each other.

Since the Gold Cup and World Hurdle look similarly weak and the Queen Mum even worse since Sprinter Sacre pulled out, Racing UK devotes the last three days of the Festival to analysing the ante-post form for the Lincoln.

The Champion Hurdle will be the best Champion Hurdle of all time.  All the main contenders will jump the last upsides one another and will swap leading positions constantly right up until the line.

Not only that, something else will come from miles behind and be in the photo-finish mix right on the line

As always with these races, the 'hype of the race' never seems to get lived up to.  But this year it will...and more !
