JP comes across as an incredibly good person

A very modest and humble man. A gent Iād imagine.
Yet, thereās lads out there who rail against him. Jealousy I sāpose.

4000 thousand winners for Jp. Fitting it came in Cheltenham.

And heāll remember the first 1000 more than the last 10
I heard that - hopefully itās just a rumour.
Itās not unfortunately
How bad is it though? Any time Iāve heard speak I the last couple of months he seemed fine.
AFAIK, itās early stages but progressing as these things do. Iād say he will be less and less in the limelight in coming years.

He registered a heap of horses last week which was good news as I think a few were expecting a down size.
Sad to hear this. Heās a great man in fairness, a credit to all things Limerick and indeed Irish

Some operator.
Heās going to have the mother and father of Cheltenhams too this year I suspect.
If that is true, it is genuinely worrying.
It seems to be becoming increasingly common. Itās awful.
Where will his winners come from at Cheltenham. Cappodano (NH chase), Ciel de Niege (Grand Annual), Jonbon, Prengarde, Epetante, Saint Roi ( champion or county) etc. Cappodano, I like but what race will he run in?
Iād expect Capo to run in the three mile grade one.
Saint ROI will improve and heāll serve it up to the mare imo.
The devils coach man looks like a classic plot for the grand annual.
Sir du berlais wonāt be far away in a stayers either.
The doctor Dino filly has its chance in the mares novice.
Champion green looks a plot for the boodles.
Plenty fancy Camprond for the coral cup.
Champ can bounce back.
Thereās a number of other ones lurking on good marks too.
I just think heāll clean up imo.
