Delta just prevails in Elliott one-two in Pertemps
It's a great day - the horses are flying. To have a first and second in a race like this is unbelievable.
Balko claims Ryanair for the sponsor
Fantastic, delighted - a brilliant ride. You had to give him a chance, obviously, but I got a bit worried when the ground went soft. I thought his run at Christmas was very good and the lads (Gigginstown House Stud) said to put him away and go for this. Davy gave him a brilliant ride and he was super.
Storyteller continues incredible day for Elliott and Russell
Davy gave the horse a peach. He was my nap of the meeting last year in the Martin Pipe, but he went wrong so it's brilliant. The horse was great. I'm absolutely thrilled.
Laurina different class for record breaking Mullins
She's a fine, big mare. If there was ever going to be a mares' chase in Cheltenham, she's the type of horse you'd want for it. Her two runs at home have been very good, but to do that against the best in the British Isles is unbelievable. There's a Grade One in Fairyhouse at Easter. If she recovers we might go for that.
Missed makes no mistake in Kim Muir
He's given him a peach (of a ride). This horse this year has annoyed me because he's a good horse - he just hadn't got it together. He stays, he jumps and he's brave. The owner wanted to go to Uttoxeter on Saturday for the Midlands National but I persuaded him to come here. He might go for the Scottish National.
