Now that it’s been confirmed Sir Gino should return to health long term Id like to share a video I took of him yesterday. The first time I ever went to Cheltenham 20 years ago I made a vow to one day treat myself to the panoramic restaurant. Well yesterday was that day. And it made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. We had a hotel about 20 mins from the course and Friday night went into Cheltenham to have a few beers and something to eat. When we got back to the hotel I had a nightcap and got chatting to a couple of lads who it transpired were in charge of doing the tipping and running the tote offices in there. Well on the Saturday we got there he came to our table and asked if we’d like to come and have a look behind the scenes of the pre parade and parade ring prior to the unibet hurdle. I felt like I’d won the euro millions and managed to take a video of Sir Gino before he went out.
