Looks like a nightmare festival for Nicky Henderson with some type of virus sweeping his yard, Shiskin and Jonbon both non-runners now.

Cheltenham gone woke today and cancelled ladies day and gone gender neutral. I can't wait until a gelding runs in a 3 mile mares only chase as a tranny horse.
Talking about woke ITV News last night had a brief bulletin of the horse that died yesterday at Cheltenham, National news honestly.Michael5482 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2024 10:01 amCheltenham gone woke today and cancelled ladies day and gone gender neutral.

They want to go up the road from me to the Abattoir and see real slaughter, newsreaders probably don't complain when they are picking their Sunday joint out of the supermarket.

There has been some type of horsey virus that has swept the yard, he's scoped all his Cheltenham horses early this week. Probably expect more Henderson non-runners and those that do run won't be fancied I'd imagine.

Will also be interesting to see what this does to Betfair volume. They must be panicking as they've even put out a post detailing new off-times on the developer forum.

Bit early to call, but 'worst Cheltenham ever' label is waiting in the wings.
Weather, ground, deaths, missing big names, illness, rescheduling, cancelled XC, woke wednesday.

who actually thinks the Cheltenham festival will even exist in five years?
