is Vatour entered into the RyanAir or Gold Cup? When do the declarations have to be made by?

Entered in both- But Ricci has said there's no chance of him going Ryanair, it'll be GC or stay at home

I thought i read after he said that, Ruby Walsh was going to hold a meeting with him to try twist his arm.

Vautour goes in the Ryanair instead of the Gold Cup!

Cunningham on C4 having a real go at Mullins for the "either he runs in the GC or he stays at home" statement then declaring him for the Ryanair.

As I've said time and time again it is not good for racing for one trainer to hold all the aces.

Great turn of foot. Very impressive.

@bobmunro how it's being there on opening day?

cafc4life

Brilliant run and ride from Nico de Boinville .Altior looked very impressive there

foresthillred

Good start but could have been better. Had a tenner on Altior and I think North Hill Harvey would have run into a place but for his blunder at the second last.

foresthillred

The game changer for a place in the 2.10. Also done the FC with douvan

PeanutsMolloy

Douvan.....such a good horse even Ruby couldn't deck him at the last.
