Gorbatov aiming for famous victory
Ivanovich Gorbatov bids to rekindle memories of the great Istabraq in the JCB Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham. Fri 18th MarTired & Trusted
The hottest Cheltenham favourite this week is likely to be Douvan: maybe odds should be similarly short about the whip debate again dominating the aftermath of one of the championship events. Paddy Brennan got fined €5,600, and banned for 11 days, after landing the King George with what the Kempton stewards described as a ‘win at all costs’ ride. It doesn’t get more ‘at-all-costs’ than at Cheltenham so we may well be heading for some tired and trusted arguments. Mon 14th Mar

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 23rd Apr, 2019 (1st) 
They went quick and he enjoys that. He travels and he jumps very well. He probably got there a little bit sooner than ideal but he got a good jump at the last and that probably finished it for the rest of them. JJ gave him a great ride, he's been riding the horse and he knows him well. You have to take a chance, go down the inside, cover him up and have a go late. Things fell his way today, it's a lovely pot and I'm delighted for JP (McManus). He loves having cover, he loves good ground and a strong pace. When things fall his way he's a good horse and when things don't go his way he tends to sulk a little bit and he gives up. Thankfully today things went his way. He was working well but you don't know what you're going to get with him. JJ gave the horse a fantastic ride. He's strong as an Ox. He's a big help to us, he works every single day schooling and you name it. Obviously we get on very well. He knows how we like the horse ridden and he gets the job done.

Really you should be talking to Joseph as he has done all the work with this horse. He's always been a natural jumper. He handled the ground but you would imagine that he will be a horse that will appreciate much better ground. Joseph missed doing the latest training course as he was away at the Breeders Cup but he will be doing the next one that comes up.

He quickened up nicely but was a bit green,. They went a good gallop and the race worked out for him. He could be one for the Queen's Vase.
