An amazing day and such wonderful support form this forum. I was so relaxed through the race and really thought we were going to do it but, in the end, we just have to be delighted with such a fantastic run. Here are some more thoughts: http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-...14/a-great-day

Has Aintree ever been on the radar? I'm thinking the Beecher chase, rather than the national.

There are a few races in England that could suit him but I think we may just need to target one as I would be reluctant to have him traveling too often - he likes his routine.
Oh, and keep us updated

BOF clearly has a versatile horse when on a going day, and it's noticeable that the 'non going' days coincide when not partnered by Sexton, something connections are well aware of.
Geraghty, Russell and Kennedy are amongst the top pilots in the game but it's Sexton who gets this one running.
As for his future target there are plenty of valuable handicap chases in Ireland I'm sure they'll take a look at, I'm not as knowledgeable on the Irish calendar as I used to be, but over here a rating of 138 would earn him around 10st in the Hennessy and having just given some serious Irish horses a beating at Listowel his versatility could see him run well.
I'm sure they'll let the dust settle for a while, a race like yesterdays can take some recovery time especially coming so early in the season...

Really random stat. The last two horses finishing third in the Kerry National went to Aintree later in the season. (finishing 1 and 5)
