…Darragh O’Keefe speaks so positively of Bob Olinger, he’s a best 25-1 NRNB for this but 50-1 AP with 365 looks a bit big. I know he’s not won over 3m but he’s 3 from 3 at Cheltenham (accepting one was very fortunate), I love the horse and had to have an e/w play at that price in an open looking contest.
….vaulting myself is not the best but I love this horse.
Was at Cheltenham on Tuesday saying how rachel blackmore had gone backwards since her injury, then on Thursday she has two winners with my two antepost punts second, un bastard believable !
I was disappointed with lucky place yesterday.
Not sure they got the tactics right on him, think i would've preferred him to have been held up.
He probably just wasn't good enough but Nico appears to give up pretty quickly if things don't go his way.
It got a bit tight on the final bend and this is where luckys race was lost, maybe he just emptied.
Well done to Bob olinger and those that had him ante post, he really is a cracking hurdler on his day.
I thought Ricky's diamond ran a cracking race for a 5yr old, and he'll be a horse to keep an eye on next season for sure, whether that will be staying over hurdles or chasing I'm not sure.
He's only been racing since last march, so to be finishing 4th in the stayers hurdle a year after your debut is pretty good going.
If he stays hurdling it's likely he'll be competing with the likes of the wallpark, home by the lee and bob olinger for the top staying races in Ireland. 2 of those will be 10 turning 11 next season and they won't be finding any improvement, Rockys diamond on the other hand will be 5 turning 6 and likely to still be improving and learning still, yesterday only his 7th lifetime run.
Has anyone seen anything about future plans for Rockys diamond?

….haven’t seen anything about plans but I immediately looked for a price for next year and 365’s (and Sky) 40-1 Stayers seemed reasonable.
