The year of the comeback?

[Deleted member 4957]

Thanks for the support guys and sorry for the poor performance; he just did't pick up the it and was looking after himself the whole way around. I am concerned the ulcers have flared up again and he is being tested today - will let you know. Maybe 2017 will be another year of the comeback!

Yeah he didn't look to be jumping fluently, that normally suggests a problem of some sort, he may have jarred himself early on with the quicker ground but after his last performance yiu wil probably be disappointed with yesterday.
Hope you get to the bottom of it and best of luck with him, keep us updated if you can

Looks like the ulcers are fine and other things might have impacted his performance at Sligo. Going at Bellewstown tomorrow and has a squeak on the likely ground. http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/

Going to have to find a different thread: this 'year of the comeback ' thing isn't working. Here's the post mortem/future plans http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-diary/

Plenty of handicaps for staying chasers in Ireland BoF (as you know). A rating of 122 would have got you into Irish National this year.

Thanks for the support Old Vic. He schooled for the first time on Tuesday - here's a short video. He is the 2nd horse (without the white markings on his face) https://vimeo.com/174605647
