Sometimes being a fan just sucks. #CZEIRL

Looking forward to seeing Nico at Fairyhouse and Punchestown.

Last day of National Hunt racing at Leopardstown until 26th December which is disappointing I think.

Is that the definitive end of this years Nicky Henderson ‘will he/won’t he’ show?

There can be nothing more dispiriting for a punter than seeing your horse dropped out the back of the field, given no chance to place never mind win, and then for the jockey to start pushing after the final flight of hurdles when the race is long gone. Stewaŕds do nothing. Punchestown 16.02 today.

Very sad to hear of the death of Damien Byrne. A LOI legend.

Could he not have done that in normal time?

Money well spent!

Over fifty years going to Ireland matches and tonight was as good as it gets! #COYBIG

It’s the hope that kills you!

How sad to hear of the death of Edward O'Grady. A giant of Irish racing. I still wonder about Golden Cygnet after all these years.

The start of my sixty third trip around the sun. Hoping for an improvement on the sixty second!

The old cliché...neither team deserved to lose.

Where I spent many happy hours honing my pinball table technique. What a shame!

Terrible news about the death of Michael O'Sullivan. May he rest in eternal peace.

Patrick Mullins could find a way to get Frankel beaten!

This is getting farcical now... #Leopardstown

My first post here. A Happy Christmas to all.
