The Giant Bolster is unlikely to run again this season after finishing a gallant third in the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup. The Giant Bolster (left): Unlikely to run again this season David Bridgwater's stable star has now been second, fourth and third in the last three renewals of chasing's blue riband - a remarkable record. Bridgwater said: "We were the top English horse, which I thought might be the case, and the only horse to represent Gloucestershire, so it was another brilliant day. "There's not a bother on him and he's in great old nick. I would say that will be it for the season, but I obviously need to talk to his owner about that. "I don't really see any point in running him again and we'll look again to the Gold Cup next year. For the horse to be placed in three Gold Cups is now pretty phenomenal."

Triolo D'Alene remains on course for the Crabbie's Grand National following his run in the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday - but plans are fluid for stablemate Bobs Worth. Triolo D'Alene: On course for the Crabbie's Grand National The latter had won at the last three Festivals, but he could only finish fifth behind Lord Windermere in a most eventful renewal of the blue riband. He returned to Seven Barrows unscathed, but Henderson has yet to formulate a game plan following his Gold Cup reverse. Stablemate Triolo D'Alene travelled well for a long way in the race before he weakened into 10th place under Tony McCoy. The Hennessy winner is, however, still on track to compete in the Crabbie's Grand National at Aintree on April 5. Henderson said: "All is absolutely fine with both horses. There are no dramas with Bobs and Triolo, but there were obviously plenty of dramas in the race. "Triolo is still on course for the National, but we need to think about various things with Bobs."

On His Own's owner Graham Wylie has announced that he has decided not to appeal the decision of the Cheltenham stewards who left the placings unaltered following a long inquiry into the result of the Gold Cup. On His Own (left) goes down all guns blazing at Cheltenham The Willie Mullins-trained On His Own was carried to his right by the winner Lord Windermere inside the final 100 yards and the stewards took a good 15 minutes to come up with their result. They decided that the interference was not severe enough to alter the outcome and Jim Culloty was allowed to enter the history books as only the fifth man to have ridden and trained the winner of the big race. Wylie stated in the immediate aftermath that he would talk to all his party before deciding what to do but confirmed that no further action would be taken. "Of course we're not appealing, that wouldn't be a very sporting thing to do," said Wylie. "He ran a great race and I'm so proud of him, I'm happy with second. "I know he was supplemented but I actually thought it was a two horse race between Bobs Worth and Silviniaco Conti, and over the last it looked that. "Ruby (Walsh) said before it he might finish fourth but he could sneak third and he did even better than that. "I don't think he'll run in the National, it comes very quick and he had a hard race so we're looking towards Punchestown, I think."

Jockey Chris Timmons was stood down from his ride in the first race on the final day of the Cheltenham Festival after failing a breath test. The Irishman was due to ride outsider Achtung in the Triumph Hurdle but was replaced by Peter Buchanan. The Luke Comer trained four-year-old finished 11th as 10/1 shot Tiger Roll landed the opener. Achtung was Timmons' only booked ride of the day and it was set to be his first of the Festival. All jockeys are breathalysed before racing and he is the only jockey to fail a test this week. Timmons hit the headlines in 2010 when he was handed a 28-day ban by the Bangor stewards after dropping his hands with the race at his mercy. Jeanry had travelled well throughout and had beaten off all-comers after the last fence. Having gone over five lengths clear of Monsieur, Timmons appeared to ease down having passed the half-furlong marker. Monsieur (5-1), ridden by Matt Griffiths, rallied gamely and got the front with about 50 yards to go, giving Timmons no chance to galvanise his mount, who went down by three-quarters of a length.

My Murphy bids to defy joint top-weight when he brings some good novice chase form to the featured 50,000 euro Irish Stallion Farms EBF Novice Handicap Chase Final at Navan today.
The Liam Burke-trained second-season novice has come back to form in recent months and having finally gained his maiden chase win in December, then performed with great credit to finish fourth in Grade One company at Leopardstown over Christmas and then a staying-on second in a Grade Two at Navan last month.
My Murphy and Ipsos Du Berlais give away weight to 15 rivals with six of those runners (Leavethelighton, Grand Jesture, Cadspeed, More Madness, Too Late To Sell and Blissful Moment) being winners on their latest starts.
Noel Meade and Paul Carberry were successful with Very Wood in Friday's Albert Bartlett Novice Hurdle and the pair have bright prospects of following up with the topically named Festive Felon in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Novice Hurdle.
Festive Felon is top-rated at 135 and while he faces just eight rivals, the race looks quite competitive with Flaming Dawn, Say It Again and Noble Endeavor each winners last time out and Wicklow Gold representing champion trainer Willie Mullins.

Ahead of the St Patrick's Day meetings tomorrow Down Royal reports its going to be yielding to soft while Wexford is soft, yielding in places with a forecast of a generally dry day today and tomorrow.
Todays action centres on Navan (2.25) and Limerick (2.10).
There are seven races on the Navan card with the feature being the Grade C Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Novice Handicap Chase Final at 4.35. Liam Burke's My Murphy heads the market at 11/2 in this competitive 17-runner race. There has been some early money for Noel Meade's Please Talk (14/1 to 10/1) and for Jupitor representing Paul Nolan. He is 9/1 from 12s. The going at Navan is soft.
Limerick also hosts seven races. The last update had the ground as heavy. Urticaire is odds on to land the Grade 3 novice hurdle for Willie Mullins and Robert Tyner's Byerley Babe is a warm order to score in the Grade 2 mares novice chase.

15:50 Sunday 16th March Racing Tips - 16/03/2014
The 2 I like for the big handicap at Navan don't have the most attractive profiles on paper. Backing an 11 year old for a novice chase means supporting a horse that finds it difficult to win. However, Cadspeed is clearly a very talented horse and he finally got off the mark last time on a first try at this trip. He is said to outwork the 2 milers at the Mullins yard but is clearly more effective over a trip on the track and 11/1 is appealing. He could be vulnerable to something a little less exposed but he is undoubtedly well handicapped off 121. Please Talk was pulled up on his last 2 starts and isn't guaranteed to get the trip but he is absolutely chucked in off a mark of 116. Noel mead just missed out with Ned Buntline in the Grand Annual but his yard are clearly going well and the patience of Paul Carberry could see this 8 year old getting the type of run he needs. The form of his Leopardstown 4th 12 months ago is very strong and he is well worth supporting at 12/1 after a 5 month break. If this was 2 and a half miles I'd be calling the bank manager but he has a chance at 3 if the race is run to suit. Navan 16.35 - Cadspeed 1pt e/w Navan 16.35 - Please Talk 1pt e/w
The Clock Leary is pick of those near the head of the market today at Ffos Las and I think he'll come on for better ground. Venetia Williams' horses are typically spending less time in the winners enclosure as the ground improves but this one acts on decent ground and it's still officially soft today (drying soft). Big Casino and Heavenstown will make it a true test and I just wonder if that's what Golden Gael needs at a big price. Related to a couple of 3 mile winners, she definitely needs a big improvement on what she has shown this year but is well treated on her old form and worth chancing at 20/1. It could be that she'll never be the same after her 20 month absence but there were at least signs last time of a return to form in a jumpers' bumper. Drying ground is a plus, yard form is not, but 119 is workable and she's overpriced. Ffos Las 15.50 - Golden Gael 1pt e/w

Somersby is in contention to run at the Aintree and Punchestown festivals. Somersby ran a blinder behind Sire De Grugy The Mick Channon-trained 10-year-old excelled at Cheltenham last week, when he finished second behind Sire De Grugy in the Queen Mother Champion Chase. Channon was also thrilled with stablemate Sgt Reckless, who claimed fourth spot in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle. A statement posted on the West Ilsley handler's website, www.mickchannon.tv, read: "Sgt Reckless is rather decent. Four years has told us that. "Somersby is a top-class horse who is running out of time. "So where do we go from here? The Sgt is as hard as nails, it will be a travesty if he doesn't prove he's the monster we believe and we'll see if Somersby is ready to have a crack again before the season is over. "Aintree and Punchestown are possibilities."

Trainer Shark Hanlon must decide whether to give Hidden Cyclone another outing this season following his sound effort at the Cheltenham Festival. Hidden Cyclone: Plans are now fluid The nine-year-old gelding gave connections a great thrill in the Ryanair Chase on Thursday when he finished second to Dynaste, beaten two and a quarter lengths. Although Hanlon had initially felt Hidden Cyclone would be finished for the season, plans are now fluid. The County Carlow handler said: "It was disappointing to get beat, but it was still a great run. "He's supposed to go out in the field now as he's been very good this season, but we've not decided what we'll do just yet."

Simenon's connections are not expecting the globetrotter to reverse placings with Cavalryman when the pair meet again in the Dubai Gold Cup on March 29. Simenon: Set for the Dubai World Cup Owner Nick Peacock has experienced some great highs with the stayer, who finished second in the Ascot Gold Cup, fourth in the Melbourne version and went on to compete in Japan and Hong Kong. As another year of travelling starts, trainer Willie Mullins has already sent Simenon to the Gulf and he closed from the rear for fifth behind Godolphin's Cavalryman in a Group Three on March 1. "He's in good form and is going to run in the Dubai Gold Cup," said Peacock, who runs Simenon under the banner of Wicklow Bloodstock Limited. "Cavalryman beat us last time, and won the race last year, so I don't think we'll beat him this time, but as long as he runs well then we can look to going back to Royal Ascot."

The record of vaccinations in the passport of GAIR LEAT (IRE), trained by Liam Corcoran, did not comply with the Rules of Racing. The Stewards found the trainer in breach of Rule (E)18 and as this is his second offence they fined him £ 280.
The Stewards held an enquiry into the use of the whip by Patrick Corbett, the rider of GATE PLEASE (IRE), placed second, from the second last. Having heard his evidence and viewed recordings of the race, they found him in breach of Schedule (B)6 Part 2 in that he used his whip above the permitted level. The Stewards suspended Corbett for 4 days as follows: Sunday 30, Monday 31 March, Tuesday 1 and Wednesday 2 April 2014.

The New One remains firmly on target for a second tilt at the Doom Bar Aintree Hurdle following his luckless run at the Cheltenham Festival. The New One: Aintree target Nigel Twiston-Davies' stable star was stopped in his tracks by the fall of the ill-fated Our Conor in last Tuesday's Champion Hurdle, but rallied tremendously well in the hands of the trainer's son, Sam, to finish third. The six-year-old was narrowly beaten by Zarkandar as a novice in last year's Aintree Hurdle and with Champion Hurdle one-two Jezki and My Tent Or Yours unlikely to head for Merseyside, The New One is set to be a hot favourite on April 3. Twiston-Davies said: "The New One is 100 per cent, no problems at all. "Hopefully he'll go to Aintree, that's the idea. "I'm not sure what else will be running (in the Aintree Hurdle). "We'll just have to wait and see." Double Ross put in a superb effort to finish a close third in the JLT Novices' Chase and will also be part of the Aintree team. As will Same Difference, who is bound for the Crabbie's Grand National after finishing fifth in the defence of his title in the Kim Muir. "He (Double Ross) was very good and he'll be going to Aintree as well, all being well, but I'm not sure which race he'll run in," said the Naunton-based trainer. "Same Difference ran all right and we're very much looking forward to the National with him."

Ruby Walsh is confident Hurricane Fly's advancing years were not to blame for his disappointing effort in last week's Stan James Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham. Walsh: Willing to forgive Hurricane Fly Willie Mullins' record-breaking 10-year-old was aiming to secure a third victory in the showpiece event on the opening day of the Festival but weakened tamely from the home turn to finish fourth behind younger guns Jezki, My Tent Or Yours and the unlucky The New One. Asked whether age was catching up with the brilliant hurdler, Walsh told Racing UK: "People are going to say that and that's the obvious answer, but I honestly don't think so. "Hurricane Fly did something he has never done in the past, which was stop. "If he had kept going off the bend and gone to the last with Jezki and was run out of it to finish third, you would say age has caught up with him, but he stopped, which is so uncharacteristic of him. For whatever reason, I don't know, but he did (stop). "Maybe I'm biased, but I'd be willing to forgive him. "I'm sure if he's happy and well, he'll go on to Punchestown." The other significant reverse during the week for Walsh was that of Annie Power, who lost her unbeaten record at the hands of More Of That in the Ladbrokes World Hurdle. Plenty believe Annie Power did not truly stay the three-mile distance on her first attempt at the trip, but Walsh does not agree and feels the occasion may have got to the highly-regarded mare. He said: "I didn't think there was a gelding that could give Annie Power 7lb, but on the day More Of That did and beat her well on the day. "But I suppose going to Cheltenham you know as well as physically needing the best horse, mentally you do as well, and Annie Power's temperament just wasn't right for the occasion. "She got too worked up and ran too keen. I never got her switched off. You need to conserve your energy in those kind of races and she just didn't do that. "There is no doubt she stayed. "As far as whether she'll go jumping fences or stay over hurdles, I don't know. "It's not a decision that has to be made today, where she goes in the future - it will probably work itself out." Having suffered injury in the JCB Triumph Hurdle on Friday, Walsh missed the ride on the Mullins-trained On His Own in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. The 10-year-old ran fantastically in the hands of David Casey, going down by just a head to Lord Windermere in a thriller. After a lengthy enquiry, the stewards deemed the interference suffered by On His Own at the hands of Lord Windermere had not affected the result, but Walsh is struggling to understand the logic behind the decision. He said: "He was beaten a short head and they found Davy Russell (Lord Windermere's jockey) guilty of careless riding. "Without seeing it (the replay), if someone is found guilty of careless riding and the result is a short head, it has to have improved your position. "I'm sorry, but it doesn't make sense how it hasn't. "Maybe that's too simplistic."

Sire De Grugy will not run at the Grand National meeting at Aintree or the Punchestown Festival, with the bet365.com Celebration Chase at Sandown his only potential end-of-season target. Sire De Grugy: Aintree and Punchestown ruled out Gary Moore's stable star silenced any remaining doubters with a brilliant display under his son Jamie in the Queen Mother Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival to put the seal on a memorable campaign which has yielded five victories from six starts. Moore said: "I'll be guided by Jamie and Sire De Grugy. "He's come out of the race really well. Everything is back to normal, he cantered this morning and seems in great form. "One thing I can promise you is he won't be going to Aintree or Punchestown. "If he goes anywhere, it will be Sandown for the Celebration Chase, and that will only be if the horse is telling me he wants to run again and the ground is suitable. "I wouldn't run him on ground as quick as he ran on at Cheltenham last week. The ground was actually too quick for him and it was his class that won him the race. "The Celebration Chase is a Grade One this year, so he wouldn't carry any penalties and he has a good record at Sandown, so we'll see." In the absence of Sprinter Sacre, who is on the sidelines after suffering a heart condition earlier this season, Sire De Grugy has been the undoubted star of the division this term. Moore admits the prospect of a clash with Nicky Henderson's brilliant chaser was not something he had relished at the start of the campaign, but his attitude has understandably changed. The West Sussex handler said: "He's a horse I want to look after for next year. "This season I was worried to death about taking on Sprinter Sacre, but now I want to have a go at him. Back Sire De Grugy at 3/1 to win the 2015 Champion Chase! "People need to remember Sire De Grugy was a June foal, so he's only seven and a half, really. "Hopefully there's more to come from him."

Southwell, 17 March 2014
2.05, first race
The Stewards held an enquiry into the running and riding of LE BACARDY (FR), ridden by Lee Edwards and trained by Tony Carroll, which was tenderly ridden in the home straight before running on to finish fourth, beaten 12¼ lengths. They interviewed the rider and the trainer’s representative. They also received a report from the Veterinary Officer. The rider stated that his instructions were to keep LE BACARDY (FR) wide and try and get him to relax as he had jumped badly when in the pack recently. He added that the gelding had travelled well but made a mistake at the third-last fence, where he sat up to get LE BACARDY (FR) travelling again before the next fence. The trainer’s representative stated that he was not aware of the instructions given to the rider. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race the Stewards found the rider in breach of Rule (B)59.4 and guilty of failing to take all reasonable and permissible measures to obtain the best possible placing. They suspended him for 14 days as follows: Monday 31 March to Tuesday 8 April inclusive and Thursday 10 to Monday 14 April 2014 inclusive.
The Stewards further found the trainer in breach of Rule (C)46.2 in respect of failing to inform his representative of the rider’s instructions and fined him £290.

17/03/2014 ========================================== Disciplinary Panel Enquiries
Miss Joanne Murphy
DISCIPLINARY PANEL DECISION
1. On 17 March 2014, the Disciplinary Panel of the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) held an enquiry to consider whether or not Miss Joanne Murphy, the registered owner of BOBBY DONALD (IRE), was in breach of Rule (A)31.2 of the Rules of Racing in that she deliberately misled BHA Investigating Officers by advising them at interview on 7 February 2012 that:
• she had been in contact with Tim Vaughan, the trainer of BOBBY DONALD (IRE), in relation to the gelding not running at Stratford on 28 July 2011; and • she had not been in frequent contact with Brett Lloyd, her ex-partner, in relation to either the race at Stratford on 28 July 2011 or the gelding’s subsequent run at Newton Abbot on 1 August 2011.
2. In relation to the race at Stratford, BOBBY DONALD (IRE) was the heavily backed favourite before being declared a non-runner on the afternoon of the race. Miss Murphy stated that she had been sent a text message from Vaughan on the morning of the race informing her that the gelding would be a non-runner and in a later telephone conversation with Vaughan had been advised of the reason that the gelding was a non-runner and that he was intending to run the gelding at Newton Abbot on 1 August, 2011.
3. Miss Murphy further stated that since she was no longer in a relationship with Mr Lloyd any contact with him was infrequent and she had not spoken to him in the lead up to either the Stratford or Newton Abbot races.
4. Analysis of the telephone records for Vaughan, Miss Murphy and Mr Lloyd for the period around both races showed Miss Murphy’s assertions about her respective contact with Vaughan and Mr Lloyd to be false.
5. The telephone records showed that there had been no contact between Miss Murphy and Vaughan on 28 July 2011 but that there had been contact between Vaughan and Mr Lloyd. The first communication between Miss Murphy and Vaughan was not until 8 August 2011.
6. The telephone records also showed that there had been 72 text messages and voice calls between Miss Murphy and Mr Lloyd on 27 and 28 July, in a total of 293 text messages and voice calls between them during the 17-day period that the telephone records covered.
7. The Panel noted that at the time of the interview Mr Lloyd was being investigated for lay betting on horses that were owned by him but running in Miss Murphy’s name, an offence for which Mr Lloyd was found in breach of Rule (E)92.2 by the Disciplinary Panel and disqualified for 30 months on 16 January 2014. The Panel was of the opinion that Miss Murphy being fully aware of the on-going investigation had deliberately misled the Investigating Officers in an attempt to distance Mr Lloyd from any involvement with the ownership and running of BOBBY DONALD (IRE).
8. The Panel found Miss Murphy to be in breach of Rule (A)31.2 and declared her to be a disqualified person for a period of 9 months from Tuesday 18 March 2014 until 17 December 2014 inclusive.

========================================= 14:30 Tuesday 18th March Racing Tips - 18/03/2014
This isn't normally my sort of bet, loose favourite in a very open race, but I really can't see much else winning the 3 mile handicap hurdle at Exeter. Kings Apollo is one of the more typical King's Theatres in that he seems to really want decent ground and the last time he ran, this yard was in the dumps. A month on and they've only had 1winner since then but the horses are running much better and I get the feeling they are about to turn a corner. Ben Poste has won on the hose before and, on the potential of that November success, you'd have thought the horse capable of defying a 5lb rise up in class and he is likely to shorten from 9/2. Bob Keown is not so obviously well treated but is from a yard which is definitely back on song and he too will appreciate the better ground today. At a price, Social Overdrive and Applause For Amy could well run into a place but one of the top two will surely take the spoils. Exeter 14.30 - Kings Apollo 2pt win
The following race is not so open due to the presence of strong and likeable favourite Caufields Venture. Emma Lavelle has don a great job with him and he should be able to defy a 7lb penalty for a comfortable victory last time where the front 2 surged clear. However, he is 11/10 and some lower done the market look worth having a go at, especially back on better ground than most have had of lat. A Presenting and a King's Theatre unsurprisingly make appeal and both from stables picking up as the sun has come out. Regal Presence looks well treated on his hurdles form and runs off the same mark as his last victory in that sphere. Blinkers, with which he has been successful in the past, are back on but the worry is that he lacks consistency and the bigger price of Comeonginger is worth a pop. This ex-Paul Nicholls inmate should be capable of a win off 104, 11lb lower than his handicap chase debut. His best effort to date came on good to soft ground when 13 and half lengths behind Kris Cross and his next two efforts were in unsuitable conditions . Hopefully they will no go too quick up top as this trip may be a maximum for now but that is a chance worth taking given he's 14/1. The yard sent out a first winner in a coulee of months 3 days ago and a return to form for Comeonginger is more likely than his price would suggest.

Anaconda heading to Winter Derby Tom Dascombe intends to run Anaconda in Saturday's coral.co.uk Winter Derby at Lingfield. Coral make the Winter Derby Trial third a 20-1 chance. Dascombe said: "I think he gets ten furlongs well and we can ride him more confidently now." ====================================== THE trainer of a horse who finished unplaced at Meydan in February was on Monday banned for eight and a half months after he admitted administering a prohibited substance prior to the race.
Abdullah Al Tamimi was prevented from having any more runners in 2014 after a post-race urine sample taken from Serjaan following his tenth place finish in the Longines Prima Luna showed that the six-year-old was found to contain the anti-inflammatory substance diclofenac.
The Emirates Racing Authority stewards heard evidence from the trainer and ERA head veterinary officer Dr. David Sykes. Al Tamimi admitted a breach of ERA rule 95A 1(b) in that he administered Voltaren to Serjaan.
As well as the ban handed to the trainer, Serjaan was disqualified from the maiden and the places altered accordingly.
Al Tamimi's ban for prohibited substances offences follows the one handed down to another UAE-based trainer in January.
Mohammed Ibrahim Abdelmajid felt the force of the stewards when, on appeal by the trainer, they increased his three-month ban to 12 months and doubled his fine to AED 30,000 (£4,900/€5,900).
In this case a post-race urine sample from one of the trainer's runners, Journalistic, at Jebel Ali on December 13 was found to contain prohibited substances caffeine and theophylline. ===========================================

Maguire set for hospital move
Jason Maguire is set to be moved to a hospital closer to his Gloucester home as he continues to recover from a nasty fall at Stratford last week.
The Grand National-winning jockey was unseated from Scots Gaelic at the second flight in a two-mile handicap hurdle and kicked in the stomach by another horse.
Maguire was airlifted to University Hospital Coventry, where X-rays revealed he suffered a fractured sternum and bleeding on his liver which resulted in having part of it removed. He was put into an induced coma while he had an operation.
"It's been a week since Jason's fall. He's up and about and all being well, he will be moved to Gloucester today or tomorrow, if a bed is available," his agent Chris Broad said on Tuesday.
"I've not spoken to him, but he's sent me a few messages and a picture. He's been up and about and had some fresh air.
"I've no idea yet when he'll back riding. He was poorly last week and he had some more blood given to him.
"He received no visitors over the weekend because he didn't feel great, but once he's back in Gloucester he'll be having visitors again.
"I'm speculating he won't be in Gloucester too long once he's moved there. He's made good progress over the weekend."

Jacob recovering at home
Daryl Jacob is recuperating at home following his release from hospital on Monday after he suffered multiple injuries in a nasty incident at Cheltenham on Friday.
Jacob underwent surgery on Saturday after suffering a broken knee, leg and elbow when he hit a hard surface after his mount Port Melon crashed into a rail on the way down to the start for the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle.
His agent Chris Broad said: "Daryl was released from Cheltenham hospital on Monday. I spoke to him when he got back home. He's had his operation and has had his leg pinned and plated. It's in an open brace, not a cast, which is good and he has had his elbow wired. It's really good he's home and is on the mend and the hospital were very pleased with how it is."
Broad added: "He doesn't go back until the end of the month to see the surgeon that operated on him, so I am not going to speculate how long he might be out for at this stage. Daryl has made good progress considering he only had his operation on Saturday morning."
