"Sorry to Burley was a four to one shot when he took the race back in 2020 as well. It is normally raised. You want to swing for one of the big price. I'm all over. Thanks for the help. All over them. And even more so on the back of what you just said. But even without knowing that, I was seriously impressed by what he did in. And he had a nice profile going into that race, and it wasn't as if he was backed off the boards. You know, it's not like he was a gigantic stable gamble on the day. He was prominent in the bedding. But it wasn't like an old JP McManus David pipe gamble of days gone by. And when he turned up to punch his town, that was his fourth really good run in well, he racked up good runs in novice company. Then he goes to punch us down, which I thought was just odd in the first place that he went over there. And he ran a blinder and was heavily gambled on. And he ran really, really well, had a decent life comeback on saint Stephen's day, boxing day. But then after a wind up and with the application of headgear, just turns it around completely. And finally, after the wind up, was demonstrating this is this is how good the source could be. Kevin brogue never touched him. Kevin brogan went near him. He's absolutely. Can I just say as well? was ChapStick. I don't know why I said whether that was his previous drug. The other thing is when he was actually in the winners enclosure, all right? He was blowing the house down as well. So that's even more scary when you bear in mind the remarks from the stable rep. So yeah, and the other thing, and you touch on a very quickly sorry mark to take it with time very quickly, is you mentioned past winners and jockey ship plays a big part. I always think in this kind of race. Where to position yours, not to go too early down the long home straight on the new course, and you mentioned call the cops. I think there was Nico de boeva, wasn't it? Yeah. What a sensational ride. That was a sensational ride. And he was just boarding on that coming in as a senior jockey. In these, we both have to apologize to apologies. Yeah, I'm losing it. Yeah, my apologies. But jockey shipping these big field handicap, whether it's a chaser or a hurdle, but I always think particularly hurdles are going that strike quickly would do in a chase. It's hugely hugely important. We can't under player it at all. No, very much so. And he's by marceline, who's the sire of din asked to won the rhino chase for David pike was 9 years ago? I think to the day he'll be back in the winners and closure again. The Marquis has one 28, would not have got him in the race last year. And on the road to cheltenham when the BHA both handicappers came at the hurdle handicapper in the chase handicapper, the hurdles handicapper was making the point that since they changed the qualifications for this race, the standard of quality for this for the entries is just dropped dramatically. First of all, they didn't get the quantity, and this certainly didn't get the quality. He's way better than a mark of one 28. The fact that his connections are already saying this fellas in the one 40s means he's gone in there incredibly well handicapped. He wouldn't have been able to run in the race previously and the nature of this race is probably going to be different as well with a lower quality of force. How strong a pace is it going to be? How classy renewal is going to be. Not a very high class one, I suspect. And I think he's going to take the world of beating. Mark Milligan, who do you like in the bretons? Yeah. You two chops are making my job really easy here because you've covered in depth some of the major players in here and all the positives for them, including thanks for the help who clearly he clearly could be much better than a mark of one 28, couldn't he. But he does head the market. So I was tempted just to look elsewhere and Emmett, you won't be surprised and regular listeners won't be surprised that I'm going to side with walking on air. Because he's a horse that you know I've got an awful lot of time for I actually thought he was going to be a big player in the ballymore last season on the back of that debut hurdle when it newbury when he was so, so impressive, but things kind of went a little bit wrong, didn't they the wheels came off at any tree. His first two starts. This season doncaster were underwhelming at a fancy name for both of those, but he finally put it all together at Exeter last time, winning with a bit in hand. Now that wasn't as strong a race as he's going to face on Thursday by any means, but he's a horse who does finally finally seem to be figuring the game out now. This will be just a 6th start over hurdles. I think he's only 6 year old. He's got the potential still to go on and be a very, very good hurdle of potentially better than a one 30s rated hurdler. Anyway, so the fact that walking on air finally figuring the game out means I'm going to side with him in here. 8 to one with me. Are you worried about the ground with him? It would be a slight concern, but we can't turn for him. We called the ground soft at newbury when he won there. We called it good to Exeter. I don't think you'd want it to get absolutely desperate, but then you could level that quite a few of these. Yeah. And he's only carrying 11 stone 5. Like he's much better than the mark of one three 8. He has to be. And by the mayor refinement, who was just desperately unlucky at children. Beaten twice in the champion bumper, Kieran Fallon, held his hands up the first time. Fallon didn't arrive until half an hour before the bumper. And then God offer and went, should have won that.

"Really interesting is the new course is going to be used for the first time on Thursday. And the ground is going to be open on Thursday. What's the ground going to be like on the Friday? I mean, that's worthwhile. I know we're talking about Thursday here. That's hugely pertinent for the final day of the festival. That's a really good shares. What is this going to do to the gold cup track? how is that going to impact the likes of galvan de champ and brave man's game? Oh, deary me. Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah. It was all looking so, I mean, look, I'm super excited. It's the cheltenham festival. This is it. This is the big week of the year. But it was looking all set to be at least good to soft ground, good ground and suddenly it's heavy. Check your going updates, Buddhists. Right. As Tony Kane and Kristen did all those years ago on the final four long. Obviously the favorite was taken out. So we have a new favorite from David pipe for JPMorgan's got a terrific record in the pratas. Thanks for the help, 11 to two with beta maxim, who had been a short press favorite for this until he bumped out of the DRS, wouldn't hold that against him. 7 to one shot, walking on air has been very popular 8 to one. Zelda Ziggy 11 good time Johnny 11s and the boss's Oscar, one of my favorites and 11 to one shot Paul. How are you looking in the pretend? So you're gonna be taking a swing at a big one here? Well, it used to be one of my favorite races because you know what you were gonna get in the attempts through the 90s and even beyond 2000. You get a faster and race and stamina would be one of the major factors. In the last few earnings, they haven't really gone all that quick. And those at the head of affairs have held an advantage. So that has been on different grounds of what we're going to get on Thursday. I was at I was at weatherby when I saw David pike's win that day of an arc of a 117 and I went into the winners enclosure afterwards. And I spoke to his head lad and I said, my word is going to make a chase of this boys and he said, he says, no, no, he's going to win the attempts first. And then over the knowledge chasing next year. And this is the quote, this is the quota unquote. And sometimes you know, you take quotes from trainers and jockeys and those associated with the stable with a pinch of salt. But he said, you know what? We've got a one 40 plus horse on our hands here. And he's running off the mid one 20s here. Now, of course you do need luck and running. You need the horse to get out of the right side of his bed or his box on the morning of the race. But he is the potential of a horse that's being thrown in. And he showed that he had a huge motor at weatherby, and he was still a little bit novelty at his hurdles and. You know, there's room for improvement in his jumping. When he sort of went short into his hurdles, he didn't know what to do. I'm sure that will have been earned out since that last run. And I think he's hugely exciting. The other horse that I thought would have a little bit of a chance here was the old boy itchy feet after he came back to form last time out. He's run well off this mark before. He will absolutely adore the dig in the ground. I think he's got a chance at 25 to one. And the other one I thought would run well and I've actually backed anti post for this race and I'm just trying to find him in my listings because I've got my anti post bets here all in a row and actually my post book this year isn't as good as normally is only have like three or four. It's percival legalis trained by Gavin Cromwell who's stable from here in really good Nick. And I thought this race was made for him. I think nowadays going back to recent renewals of this race, you do need a horse that does have the requisite speed to at least if not be a press aurora or actually lead a race to be mid div to pressure in that sort of group like 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 horses behind the leader and stays well and I think that this youngster is only a 6 year old and still has room to improve possesses those assets, but my main bet would be the new favorite now. But it's always such an interesting race. Always an interesting race. But will they go flat out as they used to do in what I turn the olden days or will they follow what's happened in the last three or four years and hunt around in which case you need to be prominent to make that place in the field that geographical place in the field play at the sharp end? Yeah, I completely agree with you on many factors here. I think the question mark about how this was going to be wrong is a fascinating one. Just for reference sake, single figure price sources have taken this race in the last few years, fingal bay, called the cops, delta work, first 5 year old twins.

"Think it's harsh. If Gary's sort of kind of labeled this one, a head case. It just knows how to get talented youngsters, doesn't he? I also had to get talented head cases for sure, but he's able to develop them into winning racehorses. Exactly. And that's the key. He's got the patience and he just knows how to tap into their talent without sort of kind of go against their temperament. Let them have the temperament start with because that fuels their ability and then slowly but surely as they grow in stature and age as well, the horses themselves then nurture their own talent. And we've seen that with Gary. We've seen that with these horses. And that's the tap that you use. So we'll say that this race is loose is mentioned. What a racist is. In previous years, how many good horses, as it produced, we've got the likes of peace and co, deputy de soy, Apple Shakira, fakir du deri and pied piper, just to name a few of the previous winners. So when you are watching this race and that's just the winners, the horses that are running it behind have been great. There's plenty to go forward to and this is why it's called trials day. It's definitely this has been a very important race. But it certainly the DOF has replaced it or has at least usurped it recently, but this card is looking to be a cracker. Yeah, yeah. The pair of them amalgamated and you should have no excuses for not finding children winners. Well, hopefully, hopefully. I like script writer. You do. I was very taken with Jupiter to geek, but I want to see him back that up. I just wonder if that was a fluke ish performance. But if it really was what he did that day, then he's going to be very, very interesting. However, he'll give scriptwriter a terrific toe into the race. He'll keep everything on us. He's going to sit at a proper gallop. Dixon cove will keep him honest up there as well, but imagine shield settle in behind. But he's won both starts over hurdles, including on the old course, beating perseus way, who's gone on to win since and would be a fancy for the friend with Fred winter. He was due to run in the finale over Christmas, but ground concerns storm switched to Wolverhampton. He wore a first time tongue tie, made his all weather debut, carried a lumpy weight and won. Gave 9 pounds in the beating to bass note, who has gone on to win since, and he's probably going to be a player on the group three on the flat this season. So he's beaten two subsequent winners in two different codes. He did make a mistake three out at Shelton and then stumbled over the last, but aside from those errors, he was very good, he'll get the strong pace that he likes. And the only concern I would have for him is the ground. But I trust Milton Harris and I believe what he did a job, and I think he's a very, very smart horse. If he handles the ground, he'll be very, I think he would be hard to be if he handles it. Hopefully he actually gets to take his chance, but we should learn more. I'll go with state star. Dixon cove for you. And Lucy, you're going to go with comfort zone. Yeah, it's a tricky one, but I think I will decide with him. If we don't have the winner there, chief. You got to pick who you want to go with. Lucy tenure of me and something else. If Jupiter geek comes in nails us all, then we're idiots. The 1210 is the time form novices handicapped chase, a fire dancer, second run after a wind up on second start for venetia Williams with Charlie Deutsche on board is the 5 to two favorite from stage star for Paul Nichols 92, unexpected party, a 5 to one shot Lucy leaders off who wins the novice chase. This is another really good lineup. There's a lot of strength in depth in this race. Fire dancer, obviously he's been very, very good over in France. And he won on his first venetia Williams at ludlow. Again, I think he might have a bit of a different test at the weekend at cheltenham. So I'm willing to take him on. I think stage start is a lovely horse with all the right credentials for this race. I've been very impressed with it with him throughout the majority of his career even overheard was last season. He was very good. Although towards the back end of the season, a little bit disappointing, but he's been very good over the bigger obstacles. This season, one last time out at plumpton. Yeah, he's got to carry a lot of weight in this contest. But that's the only concern with him, but there's a few question marks for the other horses in there as well. So I think stage star is probably the classiest source in the field, but even maneuver was very, very good at Newcastle two thoughts back. A bit disappointing since then. That's all right, do you know a lovely horse as well going to the race? There's so many nice forces in here, but I do like what stage Sarah has done so far over the fences. Yeah, I'm with you and it's the prices key with him. The 9 to two is more than fair. Second and a great to it, newbury, which was disappointing, but back on track and what was effectively a match race well it was a match race. Last time I was when he was beaten he hung to the left a little bit. I suspect something wasn't quite right that day. He won the cello hurdle. So he's a great one, not a certain winner, a mark of one four two over fences. You'd like to think there's more to come than that. And it's very interesting the poll has decided that this is the target for him giving ways away to everything. I think he'll overcome that and will be the class act in the race. Tenure, you with Lucy and I are you taking his own. I can see why you've gone for stage star. I am a bit like yourselves a bit quizzical about the price for fire dancer. We trust in this off the back of one run at ludlow. Albeit it's going to get a massive weight concession from stage star, but I worry that venetia is back on the cold list again. She went through that little spite of lots of lots of winners in a glutton now. She's not from about 8 to ten runners, which is a concern that adds to my hesitancy with via dancer, stage star, as you mentioned, is a classy act. Yeah, I mean, I'd like to agree with you with stage star. I just want to throw one in there each way. And that will be panic attack. Yes. She found Kent I felt really, really too sharp. I mean, she found kempton just too hard to catch up. She left herself. There's just too much to do, and then suddenly quietly quietly quietly. He came into the race. Did you read the form? And it's got a ten length beating. It doesn't tell the whole story, really. What it was encouraging that there was the ability to jump at a frenetic pace, even though she couldn't act around the shark track. She jumped at pace and came into contention, so if there is something that staged will may well be challenged about, I'm sure it's going to be panic attack. I completely agree with you. And that would normally be, oh, here we go, David pipe bandwagon again for Kennedy. But I was very impressed with her on her chasing debut, spoken to David pike for a stable tour and I was really taken by how bullish he was about her going over fences. And I was very intrigued to see what she was going to do on boxing day and nailed it. She was just outpaced. It was too quick a track for that day. And things happened very, very quickly, but she stayed on really strongly. I'm not entirely sure this race is going to be ideal for her, but I would keep her very closely on the mind for the cheltenham festival. And remember that in 2016, going all the way back on ten four two was sent off favorite for this race was beaten, but then won the ultima. That season. The first of his doubles. So it might be that she'll just improve for this and then go on and win a race. At the festival. But she's very, very high on the list for me. 16 to one is more compensation than you'd normally get for any concerns about her. So I'll definitely be having a save runner and I'll do the reverse forecast. I'm with stage star, but I'm keeping a very close eye on her with a view to the cheltenham festival because I think that they're going to be lining something up there.

"You're right, Emmett Mullins deserves that that plot being able to plot up a few. I'm trying to find a JP horse that would suit the profile as well, but I don't really see one. Unless damn the company, somehow bounces back to form. And I'm not entirely certain that you can really really trust what she's been doing lately. Although she did finish 6th, which is very handy because you have to finish 6th to qualify in a field of ten, beaten 97 lengths. Wait. There's a sniper outside. I think Frankie taught lips as much as let me just close the curtains so they can't get a proper aim. Frankie turtles won't be too pleased about that. So this is a race that I must say, third wind is one that was on my list. To ask you that as well, because I thought the Warwick race against supporting John just went all wrong. He didn't really get the pace that he would have liked and he finished the race off quite strongly. And then he gets all stone. I just wondered if it was a case of the ground was just too heavy for him. Well, he's interesting in the terms of what we were discussing earlier about the much bigger drops courses are getting yet. He finished last season one 5 three. It was a great one race he's running in, but that's his mark. Started on one four 9, three runs later. He's on one four one. So if you do believe that we're going to go back to a world where horses experience our grizzled horses like him who dropped a lot of the weights can win the odd handicap. He could well be one of them because you say he's got some excuses and that run behind sporting jobs are pretty good. Oh yeah, it's very good one. Yeah, I thought he was the I think I named him as the horse to take out of the day. So it was pretty disappointed with a dog but I think there are excuses for that. We're always excuses are heavy. You need a submarine to get through it in fairness. I'm probably just about siding with turtle wind as things stand. Willing to be moved on that third winds price with right now is 20s. So he's probably my pick at the moment. Your overall pick? It's not very original. I think I'll go for winter fog at the moment, but what I will be doing from a betting point of view is going through the vibes for and whose books are for which are Gordon's horses because he holds an incredibly strong hand here. Yeah, and I think that that highlight of Tully bag is very, very intriguing as well. The fact that he got them qualified at Sheldon and then was like, that's it. We're done. Thanks very much. We'll see you later, folks. Okay, the paddy power plate. Slept the alarm. It's been well supported and is down to 6s. In fact, it's just moved in front of my eyes. Four is now. We imperial art because I'm sure kaluki will if you sign up to kooky now. I'm sure they'll do better than that. Imperial alcazar 7s, the glancing queen 9s, along with birchdale or in the same price. Bustleton is tens, the shunter, who's multiply entered. He's tens, and then grand parody is tens as well. So they're the market leaders. This is a race that I'm definitely, I'm definitely swinging for the fences in this one. It doesn't really matter. I know that we've had 5 to one 92, 130 and 94 winners in recent years, but and David pike took this with solid flow in 92, but had a 92 shot in the same colors as celebrity, but I do remember Denise Williams taking it at 50s, balling the gore was a massive gamble down to 12s, Darren 33s column Murphy 16s, 14s, has this race changed then, because now I'm starting to second guess myself live on the show. This is a race I'm gonna be going for 20s plus, but actually, last four renewals have been won by favorite, if not close to favoritism. That's right. And that is a big question. Has it changed? This used to be a race that didn't get targeted. There's a similar rate at every child a meeting, often the best time to get pulses, run by by then, and there was an element of bug in turn in this. But we've suddenly out of nowhere and with the demise of the novice handicap chase, so more novices are going to run in this. You imagine, we've suddenly had four winners that have all gone off 5 to one or shorter than the front two in the market. So I would have thought before the BHA's announcement came along that that looked to be happening a little bit like attempts that the horses with the obvious sexy unexplained profile were taking over. But I wonder whether we will start getting some of those tough grizzled horses. You want to miss him a Goldberg by mister 66 to one, isn't it? Oh, there was a friend of mine whose name is Kennedy, but there's no relation. Faked backing him? He basically spent the day in the bar in the shot in the bar and pretended to be backing winners left right and center. And when mister, he went up, you know, the big window as a child. He goes up to the big windows. And he starts hammering on them. And he's like, come on. Come on. Come on. And when he jumps the last. And I'm pretty sure it was the day that cheltenham had been canceled in the Wednesday, so they had to have like 9 ten races on the Thursday and the 9 on.

"I'm hi everyone, the activity back. Great to have you back. Particularly given the fact that you have written out for Richard Faye, one of the best trainers in the UK and Ireland, also the fact that you are retraining a racehorse so that will all come into play a little bit later on with a certain topic, but we'll begin with goshen. The enigma that is goshen, but is worried that argue said on the show on Thursday, but he's not on anything we go in right handed. Jamie Moore said to said on racing TV that he turned to Tom scooter more two out, which proves jockeys do talk to each other during races. You've got me. And yet Gaussian managed to rally and get the job done. What did you make of his performance overall? And for that matter, of adagio. Yeah, well, first of all, goshen was superb again, wasn't he. He's come out and one again. And he's come out and want to get encrypted session because it wasn't that long ago that he won at sand down and got back on the store sheet. So delighted for the Moors and delighted for everybody involved this horse because I think whilst they're winning, they can hopefully carry on and I think that's the momentum that he's got now goes in. I mean, he won this race and he last year by 22 lengths obviously a bit of a shorter margin. This time around, but I mean, he dictated, didn't he and he jumped, he jumped pretty well on the whole and he was just able to make all the running and yeah, never seen another rival, although the horse back in second, as you mentioned there, Tom skewed them all. Pretty confident. And he wasn't beating that far. David pike talks and I think all roads now lead to cheltenham for that horse and they seem pretty confident about his chances. So that's quite an interesting sort of thing to take from the race I thought, but yeah, I got him back on someone once again and it was great to see. Yeah. I mean, we have to put into context adagio is coming into this on the back of a 97 day break where he finished second under a welterweight in the great wood. And I believe that the stables Lake horses out for races all the time. But it was a brilliant training performance from Dan skeleton to win that race. And it had been the plan. They were working west cork to that race for quite some time. So we know what adagio is. I don't think there's any issue with what he's done. The intriguing thing about all of this is that he was 7 to one without. For the champion hurdle. He closed to 5 to one, after we talked about him on the final furlong. And Rory said, the best thing to do really is it look ocean is going to win this. So when adagio gets beaten, they'll drift them, then back. He closed the force. It's further proof. We know you're the colloquy team always listen, but we know you're listening on its compilers. And do you think that his champion hurdle claims were enhanced on the back of this virtue? Well, yeah, I mean, well, I'll say yes, because bearing in mind, I think he's pretty short price and enough as it isn't he for the champion hurdle. So he certainly sorted in price so people would think that it has enhanced his credentials and what you'd have to think of is how confident the team have come on the back of his second place behind goshen here. I mean, David parks come out, hasn't he and spoken about how all these children, they're very, very positive. I mean, all being well, he's also got to get there in one piece. And I think the fact that he has had that injury or something that held him up in the past, they are obviously mindful of how, well, he's going to go into chat and obviously monitor his training up until then. But yeah, I think for me, I get the impression that the team are very, very confident and perhaps people have taken that on board as well because his price is short enough, I'd have thought in the champion hurdle market. Yeah, best price you can get now is 16. He was 33 is not that long ago. And I've said it all along all this season that I think he's the each way back in the race. And I'm very intrigued by goshen is what goshen is. Steve pakman said that the gelding could go up in distance again next time. And possibly be switched to fences next season? Sure, Jamie Moore can't waste. Obviously he's going to be keeping to write on the tracks. And it's nice that the ability is there that the ability remains intact because sometimes you'll know this very well when horses go through phases of being hammered, you're being beaten. They'll start to down tools, or they'll start to get a little bit depressed at the fact that that's what's going on. Like you were conquering all. And now you're not. But now we know that this is always who just does not want to go left handed. It's as simple as that. He doesn't want to do that. So as you said, he beats on for someone 22 lengths in this race last year. After that they went to cheltenham, you'll remember he took the white course. It was like watching Jack recoup corn park. But the wrong rail that came over to punch us down, that didn't work. Which should have. He was tried up and trip. They've dropped him in trip and he ended up getting beaten both times at ascot 11 lengths in 18 links, respectively. He was beaten in a three runner race, but it was a lot more like it behind Bruno for storm. And then he bowls up in the stupid contenders hurdle. But this is much more like it, I think. This is a stronger race, a more solid race. And I'm delighted for them. It's great for them that he's back in the winters enclosure, but intriguing that there are two graduates of the triumph fertile goshen won't go for the champion adagio will, and I think him coming in fresh, this was his second run after a wind off. I think he's a player. I think he's a big player. And clearly, Gordon Elliott feels the same thing about Tia poo. Now we have to get his pronunciation. Somewhat right, because it varies from country to country. But I believe it's tipu. So we'll go with that. He ends up winning the red mills trial by 11 lengths. Real talk disappointed appreciated didn't line up here? I thought that he might and considering that appreciated it is the four to one second favorite for the champion hurdle. And Willie Mullins has come out and said, well, we're just going to get them ready at home. Willy's a genius. He trained penhill to win the stairs hurdle first time out. He tried Cova to win 5 mayors hurdles first time out. The first one she won had she had a prep. So 6 in total but 5 first time out. No horses ever won the champion hurdle on their season of appearance. And he was meant to go and that was chasing and that had to be aborted. So I don't like his prep and I don't like his prize. I like the horse. But in this instance, don't like his prep, don't like the way things are. Tipu was the one who got the plot. It's the best price you can get about him. Is tens. It would very few. It's there, but it's with very few. He's generally 8s. How impressed were you with tipu? And bear in mind, this is a race where hardy eustace finished second beaten ash the shortest of short heads,.

"You give us video updates each day, one of our horses is running, which is another lovely thing and lovely thing that's attached to the WhatsApp group and everybody can get involved in chat and I'll share this podcast into the WhatsApp groups. So the whole team can everybody who's involved in the David pipe racing club can get involved. But I was talking to a longtime listener of the show recently who probably shouldn't name, but he wanted to get his son involved in racing. And he asked me about the David by racing club because he had heard you on the show. And I said, strongly recommend that just get involved. And he was at your open day. And he said, his son is just blown away. He's just and we're going to be talking about young people in racing in a second. And with Samantha Martin and the fact that you get such a lovely message back from somebody who brings their son to your yard and is now obsessed with the sport and obsessed with horses is just such a lovely thing to see to hear. Yeah, it's great. It's lovely to hear that and we need the young people coming into the sport. It's great to get them involved. And yeah, you know, it gives everyone a part of a chance of being part of the part of a race horse and the thing I think is great is that like yourself and other people, your horses. You know, you hear them down the pub. And you can hear them talking and they own them themselves. Which I think is great. Oh, yeah. Interviewed on teal from Game of Thrones. That Jon Snow bastard was my opening line to him. He's in line of duty as well. But he's crucially he's in the film dream horse with Toni Collette about the philippa source from was bred in an allotment in Wales. Dream alliance. And Damien Lewis is in the film as well. And we had a very lengthy conversation. I think we were supposed to talk for 40 minutes ended up being an hour and 40. We just had so much fun. And he wasn't interested in racing at all. He threaded the boards playing Shakespearean characters. He's been in some of the most iconic TV shows. But his role in this film was hugely significant. He plays the husband of Tony Colette. And he's just become engrossed with racing. He's just completely fallen in love with it. And he said that the perception of racing that he had beforehand was completely wrong, and it wasn't until he started working on the film. And getting involved in it, and then being there and seeing how horses are trained and getting to be up close and be the track that his viewpoint completely turned. And now he's a massive fan of racing, which is fantastic that you get a high profile guy like on Tiger. Following racing. Maybe own will buy that that's an XR's point to pointer, actually, because he listens to the show now. So there's a use that line of duty money and by the XR's point to pointer, who finished second with the form after being Frank. How many horses are currently with the David pipe racing club? We've got 6 at the present moment. So just got a new uncle. Ben Lee came off the flat rated AC field. So currently getting schooled and hopefully we are in a few weeks. Okay. Hundred quid for the year. Again, good Christmas gift. You can also do the goal of a membership if you want to. And you've got an incredible 40% strike rate of forces reaching the frame, which is insane. It's ridiculous. So the buzz that we've got to try and get it higher. Get his that Shelton winner. We got all about some days. All of us suddenly are going to get as the cheltenham win with scarlet witch and you're going to get as a jump and win with the David bike racing club. For final fall on podcast listeners, can you give me two horses one long-term project and one that's going to be we're going to see in the near future for listeners to follow. Probably a long term project is probably red line lad. Hopefully a develop into a lovely staying chaser and I like the I like angles crack got some good bump performing Ireland last year and he's not quite ready yet when he is. I think he'll do well for us. Both go into the tracker and both will be followed. And if you would like to learn more about the David play racing club, David pike dot com is the site to check out the racing club is there and you've got some fantastic updates. I have to point out as well, by the way that you because a miss the open day you posted at the brochure to me. And the brochure rivals cool Moors. That's how impressive it is. It's glossy, it's slick. It's so detailed. I wish the lawsuit did. Maybe JP will buy you'll do it for Joseph. He'll buy a load of X 8 and O'Brien horses and send them over to you. Who knows? Who knows? Maybe. It just depends on Frankie types basically, doesn't it? But David, the pleasure is always a really appreciate your time. And it.
