Exchange back out to looking like Ballymore and not this for Gaelic Warrior.

I get very suspicious about some of these exchange movements. It's been said time and time again that it doesn't take much cash these days to move markets with reduced liquidity. This one seems to have had little substance.

I think people see the sea of blue on odds checker and panic, forgetting most firms are NRNB.

I haven't seen this mentioned here but Paul's blog yesterday via ladbrokes.

Paul Townend on FACILE VEGA:

"Among my best chances of the #CheltenhamFestival is Facile Vega. I have forgiven him for Leopardstown and I hope he has forgiven me.

"The feeling I get off him is so special and I hope we can get off to the right start."

I spent more time than I should have trying to snipe some of the bigger prices on GW for the Bally yesterday. I think it was someone messing around on the exchange to try and force the drift - less than a hundred quid was matched at double figures.

The tweet by RoadToCheltenham even got a few of my mates panicking!

And in this age of misinformation, together with paranoia and nervousness so close to the Festival, nevermind the ignorance and innocence of casual punters, these are enough ingredients for those who want to, to present false flags. Thankfully, this one doesn't seem to have had much effect.

Dark Raven being supported for this. Really think he'd be seen better over a longer trip but I guess the Double Greens don't want to run Double Double Greens on the Wednesday

But of money for Inthepocket in this. Last matched at 32s. Presumably weather related.
