Is it guilt do you reckon ?
I was away Monday to Thursday and have to say that most of the time I forgot I was married, is this what makes us go gift crazy when we get home ?
A few days away with friends and we feel compelled to win back brownie points immediately....

But again, at least you do something with the crackers.
We've all had worse festivals, how did we cover the missus' wishes in those years ?

I saw today the 'capper gave his verdict on festival performances, Altior rated 160 which is exactly the same rating given to Douvan last year and 2lb higher than the rating given to Vatour when he won his Supreme

Ista - what Aidan said
Aidan O'Brien added: "It's unbelievable to be here and it's happened. The last time I saw him was in Ballydoyle and I've just seen him at the races since. It's a great team effort. I'm delighted for Joseph, JP and everyone.
"Joseph rode him to win on the Flat and I always thought this was the closest to him (Istabraq) that we have had."
"That's incredible for him (Joseph) and it's a big deal. He's been brought along nicely and he didn't over-do him for Christmas as he had his eye on running him in this race.
"He needed the last day for experience and Barry gave him a great ride today.
"Joseph has always been around horses, it's like breathing to him and he's worked very hard for this."
