Racing’s fickle finger of fate has ultimately proved far from kind to popular Irish-born jockey Noel Fehily who has now been told that the injured wrist he sustained in a fall at Newbury in November will not heal in time for the Cheltenham Festival, and indeed may result in him being out for the rest of the season, writes Elliot Slater.
Fehily, stable jockey to Charlie Mann, was the rider that champion trainer Paul Nicholls turned to when his stable jockey Ruby Walsh took a crushing fall and sustained a broken leg at Down Royal at the start of November. Walsh remains on the sidelines, but is expected to return to race riding in mid-February.
Having been offered such a golden opportunity Fehily soon showed that given the right material he is possibly as good a rider as there is anywhere in the British Isles at present. Showing a fine mixture of judgement and strength, he booted home a string of winners for Nicholls, most memorably partnering the rejuvenated Master Minded to an impressive victory in the Grade 1 Tingle Creek Chase. That win came during a brief spell when Fehily returned to ride having suffered damage to his wrist some weeks earlier when falling from Nicholls’ Rivaliste at Newbury.
Maybe if he had stayed on the sidelines a little longer and given his wrist more chance to recover, the damage sustained in the Newbury fall would not have been so nad, but in truth, it’s impossible to know. What is for sure is that Fehily, (during his all too brief spell as main rider to the Nicholls yard), showed that he has got what it takes to be up there with the cream of the crop. Those who bet on horse
racing (http://betting.ladbrokes.com/en/horse-racing) will be wishing him a speedy recovery.
When he does return to full fitness, it is to be hoped that National Hunt trainers and owners don’t forget that here is a man well capable of getting the best out of a horse whether its over hurdles or fences.

Quality rather than quantity is the order of the day as 10 entries have been received for the Grade 2 William Hill Desert Orchid Chase, one of the feature events on the second day of the Kempton Festival card scheduled for December 27, writes Elliot Slater.
The £55,000 contest was won 12 months ago by the Nicky Henderson-trained Petit Robin, and the seven-year-old looks set to bid for back-to-back victories in the race following his fine reappearance run at Cheltenham earlier in the month when chasing home the back-to-form Master Minded in the Grade 1 Tingle Creek Chase at Cheltenham.
Henderson could also be represented by Mad Max, (sixth to Poquelin in the AP McCoy Gold Cup a fortnight ago having run fourth to Little Josh in the Paddy Power Gold Cup a month earlier), and French Opera. Champion trainer Paul Nicholls has entered the talented Tataniano, third behind Gauvain at Cheltenham (http://betting.betfair.com/horse-racing/cheltenham/) last month on his seasonal bow, and Tchico Polos, who beat the ill-fated Twist Magic in the Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter first-time out this term before falling at Cheltenham on his most recent start in the race won by Little Josh.
Ferdy Murphy has declared Kalahari King, whilst Nick Williams’ Cornas, the David Pipe pair of I’msingintheblues and I’m So Lucky, and Alan King’s capable Oh Crick make up the field. An impressive performance from any of the ten at Kempton will impact on their Cheltenham Festival odds with most of the runners being targeted at the festival for races such as the Queen Mother Champion Chase and the Grand Annual Handicap Chase.
In the Champion Chase ante-post market, Tataniano is currently the shortest price of the field with cheltenham gold cup betting odds (http://betting.betfair.com/horse-racing/cheltenham/cheltenham-features/the-7-greatest-cheltenham-gold-cup-horses-ever-211210.html), being offered at just 12/1, French Opera and Petit Robin and quoted at 25/1, Kalahari King can be backed at 40/s, whilst 150/1 is available in places about Oh Crick.

There’s so much great racing across Britain on Saturday that it would be easy to miss out on one significant race or another. With the Ayr gold cup 2010 and Silver Cup’s on the west coast of Scotland, and the Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes at Newbury, you could easily overlook the Investec Cesarewitch Trial Handicap which takes place at Newmarket and should provide valuable clues as to the wellbeing of a number of candidates for the big race coming up next month, writes Elliot Slater.
Run over the Cesarewitch course and distance of two-and-a-quarter miles, Saturday’s event sees Kayf Aramis, Ajaan and Red Cadeaux, taking each other on in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
Those looking at Online horse betting note how Henry Cecil’s Ajaan hasn’t won a race for well over two years, but having run really well to finish fifth of 32 behind Darley Sun in last year’s Cesarewitch the suspicion is that the Warren House trainer has had the big staying handicap in mind for the son of Machiavellian all season. His most recent run when a staying-on eighth in Haydock’s Old Borough Cup, followed a fine effort when fifth in York’s feature Ebor Handicap. A win on Saturday could catapult Ajaan to the very forefront of the ante-post market.
Kayf Aramis is a talented dual purpose performer and has been rested since tackling Grade 1 company over hurdles in the spring. Last seen on the level when fifth in the 2009 Ascot Stakes, a good run this weekend would augur well for the big event in a month’s time.
Red Cadeaux is a progressive staying four-year-old who appears to be improving race by race over the last few months. Recent placed efforts in a listed handicap at Chester and a hot event at Haydock last time out, suggest that Ed Dunlop’s charge could well develop into a leading staying handicapper over the next few seasons and he could well be one to follow.

Anyone who saw the authoritative display from Ed McMahon’s Temple Meads in winning the Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury can hardly have failed to be impressed, and the juvenile colt’s owner John Fretwell has now set his sights on an even bigger prize with the Group 2 Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Gimcrack Stakes at York next month as his most likely target, writes Elliot Slater.
Fretwell has owned some decent horses over the years, especially in the two-year-old division, but he is categorical in his assertion that the son of Avonbridge is easily the best horse he has raced in his well known lime green colours. It would be hard to argue with the visual evidence after Temple Mead’s comfortable win the valuable five furlongs sales event at the Berkshire track this weekend, in which he travelled smoothly throughout before picking up well entering the final furlong to peg back pace setting Bold Bidder to score by a length and land the £98,000 first prize.
In view of the fact that this was only his second racecourse appearance following a win on debut in a Newmarket maiden, there is every reason for horse race betting experts to expect even further improvement for Temple Meads, particularly as he appeared to need every yard of the minimum trip at Newbury and could well be better served by the extra furlong at York.
The colt had been due to take his chance at Royal Ascot in the Coventry stakes but was ruled out with a throat infection, a setback that in the long run might prove to have been a blessing in disguise as he was given more time to strengthen up before his second outing.
Should all go to plan with betting online at York, trainer McMahon is eyeing a possible crack at the Group 1 Middle Park Stakes in October, yet another indication of the high regard in which Temple Meads is held

The 150th anniversary of the Emirates Melbourne Cup will recognise it’s significance to Australia and the world, while acknowledging the important role Ireland has played in the Melbourne Cup’s 150-year history which is now intrinsically linked to the social and cultural fabric of not only Melbourne, but throughout Australia. This important role is based around our mutual passion for horseracing.
This deep passion has been further fostered by the ongoing strategic partnership between the Victoria Racing Club(VRC) in Australia and The Curragh.
To ensure the recognition of this milestone event, VRC has partnered with a multitude of stakeholders, from federal, state and local government, tourism and trade agencies both nationally and internationally.
The 150th celebrations will focus on the national heritage of the race and the contribution it has made to Australia.
First staged in 1861, the Emirates Melbourne Cup is traditionally central to the psyche of the Australian people. It is “the race that stops a nation.”
Run every year on the first Tuesday in November, the Emirates Melbourne Cup attracts a massive global television audience of more than 700 million people across 120 countries, with millions more either viewing or listening to the event online.
And in 2010, the Emirates Melbourne Cup will cement its position as the richest handicap race in the world by offering record prize money of more than 4.2 million Euro.
The allure of the Emirates Melbourne Cup is that it not only captures the imagination of racehorse trainers, owners, and jockeys, but the national and international sports and culture-loving public.
The 150th Melbourne Cup will be a celebration of past, present and future, which acknowledges the heroic tales, epic battles and significant interweaving of the sport with the social fabric of communities throughout Australia, across the Tasman and around the globe.
The VRC has developed some exciting projects aimed to honour the 150th anniversary, projects that will remain at Flemington for future generations to enjoy.
The first of which will be the development of The Visitors Centre at Flemington Racecourse where the Centre will be a state of the art facility and will allow visitors to experience the excitement of racing all year round. Through interactive technology visitor will be able to experience the history and heritage of Flemington, the Cup and its heroes.
The centre will be the starting and finishing point for the Guided Walking Tour Program, which takes visitors on a tour of the racecourse attractions, highlighting the historic and significant aspects of Flemington.
As the Hollywood Walk of Fame honours the stars of the screen, The Flemington Walk Of Fame will forever immortalise the Melbourne Cup champions of the turf in recognition of their contribution to the great race – including the legendary Phar Lap.
Phar Lap (1926-1932) was a champion Thoroughbred racehorse whose achievements captured the public’s imagination during the early years of the Great Depression. Foaled in New Zealand, he was trained and raced in Australia. Phar Lap dominated Australian racing during a distinguished career, winning a Melbourne Cup, two Cox Plates and 19 other weight for age races. He then won the Agua Caliente Handicap in Tijuana, Mexico in track-record time in his final race. After a sudden and mysterious illness, Phar Lap died in 1932. At the time, he was the third highest stakes-winner in the world.
This Legendary Thoroughbred’s mounted hide is displayed at the Melbourne Museum, his skeleton at Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and his heart at the National Museum of Australia in Canberra.
Because of the rise of the Melbourne Cup as a famous race running parallel to the rise of Melbourne as one of the great cities of the world, it is fitting that many of Melbourne’s public institutions will join with the VRC to celebrate this milestone occasion with a series of exhibitions, speaker programs and special performances.
Throughout Australia, this milestone will be recognised with a Postage Stamp series featuring the Cup trophy and hero horses, and a commemorative coin will be produced by the Royal Australian Mint.
The 150th Melbourne Cup will also be celebrated through the Arts, a world-class photographic exhibition known as ‘Photo Finish’ will capture an extraordinary and exclusive selection of portraits of prominent owners, jockeys, breeders, celebrities and VIP’s.
Top international photographers have been engaged to photograph these subjects at locations around the globe. Leading Australian trainer, Gai Waterhouse skiing in Aspen, ‘Cups King’ Bart Cummings at his stables in Sydney, world renowned jockey Frankie Dettori in Dubai, and Australia’s own champion jockeys – Damien Oliver surfing at Victoria’s famous Jan Juc Beach, and Glen Boss landing his helicopter on Flemington racecourse and of course, our Irish heroes Dermot Weld and Mick Kinane.
One of the most significant components of the year’s celebrations centres around the most highly recognised sporting trophy in Australia, the coveted Emirates Melbourne Cup trophy.
In the 1930’s, as a result of the Great Depression, the VRC was forced to reduce both the gold content and the size of the trophy itself and it never returned to that beauty and richness of 1930.
It was therefore appropriate that this magnificent trophy that same year, 1930 – was won by the immortal Phar Lap, the horse that has become a folklore hero in Australia.
However, this year, the VRC determined that the 150th running of the race was an appropriate time to reintroduce the proportions of the 1930 trophy.
To commemorate this significant milestone, the VRC is undertaking an ambitious program that will see the iconic Emirates Melbourne Cup trophy embark on a 220-day global tour, taking in 42 separate destinations over seven months, including a massive week of celebrations in Melbourne.
This is the biggest global undertaking of any Australian sporting organisation.
The Emirates Melbourne Cup will be further promoted through the participation of high profile racing, fashion and cultural ambassadors.
Since its beginnings in 1861, the Melbourne Cup has remained a constant in an ever-changing world. Through tears and triumphs, the Cup has cemented its position as a revered sporting, social and cultural event, that continues to play a significant role in defining Australia’s national identity and as a result of this, the 150th Melbourne Cup has received endorsement from the Australian National Commission for UNESCO, acknowledging it as an event of Cultural Significance to Australians.
In this milestone year, we have the opportunity look to recognise not only the champion horses and inspiring stories that make up the Melbourne Cup’s heritage, but to look forward, in anticipation of those incredible tales yet to be captured.
The VRC is extremely proud to be the guardian of this great race, and would like to extend an invitation to each and every person to visit the great city of Melbourne in this milestone year and share in these wonderful celebrations first-hand, as the City prepares itself for the greatest celebration that it has ever seen.

For many people the highlight of the five-day Royal Ascot meeting, the Group 1 Ascot Gold Cup run on ‘Ladies Day’, the third day of the fixture, is a race full of history and champion stayers whose names live long in the memory, writes Elliot Slater.
For the last four years one horse has dominated the race, and indeed dominated the whole Royal Ascot scene, and that horse is the near legendary Aidan O’Brien-trained Yeats, who won the two-and-a-half mile marathon four consecutive years between 2006-9, the only horse in history to achieve such a feat.
In the long history of this tremendous thoroughbred contest which stretches back to first renewal in 1807, there can be few, if any winners that have been more popular or proved themselves to be such a high-class staying performer. Yeats has galloped off into a well earned retirement and there will be a new champion crowned at Royal Ascot 2010.
One thing that endears the horses racing in the Gold Cup to the Ascot public and to racing fans around the world, is that most runners are four-years-old and upwards so have become familiar to the Royal Ascot betting public over a number of seasons. Consequently the popularity of the many dual and even triple winners of the race has built up over a number of years.
In the modern era Sagaro’s three wins (1975-7) made him a tremendously popular horse, whilst great dual winners since include, Le Moss, Ardross, Gildoran, Sadeem, Drum Taps, Kayf Tara, and Royal Rebel.
The testing Ascot racecourse is the ultimate yardstick by which to judge a top-class stayer being a galloping track that places stamina at a premium on the uphill run to the line from the three furlong marker.
Whoever wins the 2010 renewal will earn the plaudits of racefans who acknowledge that the Ascot Gold Cup is the most coveted international staying event on the globe.taking viagra woman Cheapest Generic Viagra Sent Overnight cheap gerneric viagra

In a year in which there are a number of lively veteran candidates for the John Smith’s Grand National, Oliver Sherwood’s Eric’s Charm comes into the race in fine form and could well give supporters a serious run for their money at a big price with Grand National 2010 betting, writes Elliot Slater.
The 12-year-old fairly bolted up in the three-and-three-quarter mile London National Chase at Sandown in December off a mark of 135 and has been allotted a racing weight for Aintree of 10st 9lbs, reflecting an 8lb rise in his mark. Essentially Eric’s Charm’s current figure suggests that the horse is remarkably running to a very similar level of form to five years ago when he was considered one of the up-and-coming young chasing stars.
A winner of 10 of his 34 career starts, Sherwood’s grand servant has a particular liking for Sandown, a track where he has won twice and only narrowly failed to win the Betfred Gold Cup (formerly the Whitbred Gold Cup) in 2006. In 2008 Eric’s Charm ran his one and only race thus far over the daunting Aintree fences and only got as far as the sixth when coming a cropper whilst racing in the leading group.
Hopefully that experience won’t have put the French bred gelding off the unique Liverpool course and being a generally sound jumper there are good reasons for believing that he can put in a very respectable performance. Although he appears to handle anything other than fast ground, it seems that with the passing of the years the veteran prefers to get his toe in, and should the ground ride on the soft side of good that can only be a positive indication to his chances.
When placing your bet on Aintree Grand National, consider that this is horse who handles the big occasion well, has been specifically trained for the race this year and is a relentless stayer, Eric’s Charm (a 100/1 chance) can roll back the years and finish with more behind than in front on April 10.

Anyone shrewd enough to have selected Razor Royale at fancy prices for the 2010 Grand National prior to his gutsy success in the Racing Post Chase, will be on very good terms with themselves now after the gelding’s ante-post odds tumbled following his neck defeat of Nacarat in a thrilling race, writes Elliot Slater.
Trimmed to a best offer of 40/1 having generally been available for the Grand National at 66/1 before Kempton, Razor Royale adds further strength to the hand of trainer Nigel Twiston-Davies, who could also be represented in the four-and-a-half mile marathon by Ballyfitz, Ollie Magern, Irish Raptor and Hello Bud.
A prior engagement in the William Hill Handicap Chase could possibly be the next stop on the trail for Twiston-Davies’ charge who put behind him a disappointing effort when made favourite at Sandown last time out when he could only finish seventh behind the grand veteran Monkerhostin.
Not only his Racing Post Chase success, but also his earlier effort this term when a fine second to the smart handicapper Poquelin in the Boylesports.com Gold Cup at Cheltenham, demonstrate that Razor Royale is quite capable of mixing it in top handicaps. Although yet to race beyond 25 furlongs, there appear few concerns on the part of connections that the eight-year-old will have any stamina problems at Aintree.
Further back in the Kempton field another possible Aintree contender Madison Du Berlais ran well for a while but appeared to be lit up a little too much by the first-time blinkers, whilst Kilcrea Castle, a market mover over the last few weeks of February, was rather disappointing in managing only eighth, having previously shaped well when third at Ascot on his first start for Emma Lavelle. He has now been pushed out to a top-priced 50/1 with Ladbrokes for the John Smith’s Grand National.cheap gerneric viagra 3 Citrate Generic Sildenafil Viagra Generic viagra levitra and cialis pills generic viagra levitra and tadalafil 863.

Saturday’s Grade 2 Bathwick Tyres Kingwell Hurdle at Wincanton will hopefully answer some serious questions about the wellbeing of three contenders for the championship crown at the Cheltenham 2010 next month, writes Elliot Slater.
Since he won the Champion Hurdle 11 months ago I have been very sweet on the chances of Nicky Henderson’s Punjabi retaining the title. This season the Komaite gelding did nothing wrong on his debut when far from fully tuned up, shaping well until the run to the last flight when he blew up and faded into fourth behind the impressive Khyber Kim in the International Hurdle at Cheltenham. His subsequent defeat at the hands of another very good horse, Medermit, in a four-horse race on desperate ground at Haydock is best ignored.
Last year Punjabi came to the Kingwell and was a beaten favourite before going on to win the big one four weeks later. There is no doubt that Punjabi saves his best for Cheltenham and I would urge supporters not to give up faith.
Celestial Halo, who won the Grade 2 Elite Hurdle at Wincanton in November, was odds-on when subsequently beaten by Khyber Kim, and then could only finish fourth at Leopardstown last time in the Irish Champion Hurdle. He is still a very smart horse and Paul Nicholls will undoubtedly be hoping that the return to Wincanton brings out the best in his horse who lost by only a neck to Punjabi at Cheltenham last year.
With the fast improving Starluck, a short-head second to Go Native in Kempton’s Grade 1 Christmas Hurdle also in the line-up, the Kingwell Hurdle promises to answer plenty of questions about three serious championship contenders.
It is possible that Starluck might just come out best on the day, but I still believe that come the Cheltenham Festival Punjabi will be at his peak and prove hard to beat in the main event.
Another horse that may well be hard to beat is last year’s Champion. It is worth checking out Kauto star betting in the coming weeks as Paul Nicholls’ horse looks to make it three victories in four years in the Gold Cup.viagra anxiety Generic Viagra Meltabs Drug taking viagra woman

The fashion stakes are set to be higher than ever, when legendary Irish milliner Philip Treacy, in conjunction with the Design Centre, will be on hand the Hennessy Gold Cup Best Dressed on Sunday 7th February 2010, when Ireland’s most glamorous ladies will demonstrate the ultimate in style and elegance in the hope of walking away with the grand prize of €4,000 for the Hennessy Gold Cup Best Dressed, in association with The Design Centre.
The sporting and social highlight of the racing calendar, The Hennessy Best Dressed recognises style in its truest form, distinguishing those with inherent elegance, originality and vibrancy. This year marks the 4th year of the hugely successful Hennessy Best Dressed, in association with the Design Centre and significantly marks the 20th running of the Hennessy Gold Cup at Leopardstown Racecourse.
The winning lady will be presented with a €4,000 voucher from The Design Centre, in the Powerscourt Centre and one lucky runner-up will receive a voucher for €1,000 from the fashion house that boasts collections from established and up-and-coming Irish and international designers including, John Rocha, Preen, Ben De Lisi, Synan O‘Mahony and John McCormack.
Judging criteria for the Hennessy Best Dressed, in association with The Design Centre will include the appropriateness of outfits for daytime winter racing, as well as the consistency and harmony of style throughout the entire outfit. Headwear and outerwear (coat/fur/stole) will be mandatory on the day and, above all else, the demonstration of an appreciation of elegance, glamour and luxury will be of paramount importance in the judging process.
For the first time ever this year, and due to the popular demand, stylish ladies are invited to pre-register for the Hennessy Best Dressed in association with the Design Centre at www.hennessybestdressed.ie . Alternatively, registration will also take place on the day in the Tote Hall at the venue.
On the day, a shortlist of 20 stylish ladies will be selected to join judges Philip Treacy, Annmarie O’Connor, fashion blogger and stylist, Ashling Kilduff, The Design Centre and Caroline Sleiman of Hennessy to describe and discuss their respective outfits. A final decision will be made collectively by the judges whereby one winner and one runner-up are selected.
Richard Hennessy left his native Cork in 1765 to sail to France where he founded the world’s leading Cognac house. The number one Cognac in Ireland, Hennessy embraces the loves of Irish people and has always been a huge supporter of racing in this country – indeed the Hennessy Gold Cup is the longest standing race sponsorship at Leopardstown racecourse.
