As mentioned above, Galvin well beaten today (49 lengths) could that be the Cross Country for him now if all is alright with him

Sadly he looks a shadow of his previous best. Definitely something amiss with him .

Yep, that handicap mark will start to come down quickly with another poor show in the DRF - I think that is right before the national weights are announced.

I'd prefer a run at Cheltenham in the re arranged cross country on trials day.

…interesting that Delta Work finished 6th in this last season for Elliott before going on to win the XC. Galvin finished 6th in this today for Elliott.

Incredible for a young man, same with Joseph O’Brien at only 29 he’s making a proper name for himself. RTE made a remark yesterday of what O’Brien’s tally could look like when he’s 50 or 60. Hard to comprehend.

2 bright youngsters for the future of the sport that’s for sure
 
Given the injuries Jack Kennedy has had so far, it's amazing he hasn't lost his bottle over fences. I can't remember what he's broke but I'm sure hes had multiple leg fractures, a broken arm and done his collarbone a couple of times.

On of the key traits of a jump jockey is stupidity.
He looks as daft as they come.
Bit like Goalies.

Next time anybody on here is requesting a price for something on paddy power it would be much appreciated if you would also request foxfire glow (supreme novices) and iron bridge (brown advisory) to allow me to cash them out for some small percentage.
