The way Davy slowly but surely passed horses was so satisfying to watch, one of my favourite ever rides.

Faugheen, Benie Des Dieux and the mighty Douvan all being retired by RR. What might have been with Douvan only for injury..

[Hurricane fly]

Faugheen was probably the first horse I truly followed from bumper all the way through his career.

Telling my dad he would beat Red Sherlock in the ballymore is probably the first time I proved him wrong about horses ever and turned tide for our tipping relationship!

However I am truly gutted about Douvan, I will argue for the rest of my life he should have been better than Altior, and I hate that people bring up the 2017 CC as a reason for him being overrated. The horse had a broke bloody pelvis! So quick away from his fences and devoured the hill. I bloody loved that horse.

Faugheen - I geniunely feel like my best friend has joined the boat to travel with the elves to the undying lands

Injury robbed off of perhaps his very peak - but then he did also go on to place in a stayers Hurdle and a Marsh. What an animal

[Faugheen_Machine]

Faugheen gave me my best ever day on a racecourse. He was unbeatable in his prime and I'd have him as the best champion hurdler since Istabraq. If they'd gone over fences earlier I think he'd have won a Gold Cup too.

A well earned retirement for all three.
