To welcome in the new year I have decided to start a blog about all things racing. Naturally there will be plenty of images put up on this blog but as my interest in racing runs quite deep I figured I might as well add my two cents to the issues of the day which I am passionate about. As I write this with only a couple of hours left in the year I can only look forward with great anticipation to 2010 in the belief that if it is half as good as 2009 then it will be one of the greatest years we've ever seen for equine talent. With the likes of Kauto Star, Denman, Big Bucks, Solwhit, Sizing Europe, Captain Cee Bee, Dunguib among others it's going to be a great second half to the jumps season. I also wonder how long it will be before we see another horse on the flat to match the caliber of Sea The Stars. Is St. Nicholas Abbey as good as Ballydoyle think and who will fill the void left by the retirement of Yeats in the staying division?
A new year full of questions to be answered and 365 days of racing to entertain us. Well maybe. It's snowing outside and Fairyhouse tomorrow has already been abandoned due to waterlogging. Ah well, it means there'll be plenty of time for writing. Happy new year to all.
