Some say it’s Supreme Tuesday. Others call it Champion Hurdle Day. I just say Happy Naiad Day to everyone looking forward to Hyland this afternoon !!! 🎉🎉🎉 I look forward to catching up with many of you on the Parade Ring steps pre-race this afternoon.

@GarethBale11 what an incredibly likeable human

It's the NAIAD @PaulBeck3001 youtube.com/watch?v=Wbc4tZ…

Check your diaries. Cancel all commitments. The Most Important Podcast Of The Season is just round the corner. 🚨🚨DOING A NAIAD 2026🚨🚨 🚨Thursday 26th February @ 7pm🚨 Firstly, thank you all for the interest you show in The Annual Naiad. Over the last couple of weeks or so the number of emails I’ve been sent, and the messages on social media asking if The Annual Naiad is going ahead again is incredible. Prior to starting, between 6.45pm and 7pm, I’ll post the link for the Live YouTube Podcast to this Twitter Account. Also I’ll add it to the various Racing Groups I’m involved with, and also on the Fat Jockey Forum. Please be aware, that the servers get very busy as soon as the link is posted, and it can take a minute or two to get in. There will be some on here that won't have a clue what this is all about, but if you search 'Doing A Naiad' on Google you'll find some of the Annual Podcasts from previous years, which will give you a good general idea of what to expect. In short we have massive plunge on one horse in the handicaps, and the price crashes quicker than a Willie/JP horse making it’s handicap debut straight out of France. It’s a pre-Festival tradition for so many racing fans now, it's a live podcast where we all push the button on the selected horse at the same time on a value horse, that often crashes into favourite on the night. So, if you haven’t joined us previously you’ve been missing out. It’s a lot of fun, and for anyone who loves Horse Racing and the Festival in particular, make it one of your annual traditions too. For those who attend the Festival on the day it runs, it’s also become a tradition to gather to watch the race on the big screen by the Parade Ring. I’ll post more details about that later. Last year’s selection Busselton failed to fire. Un-forecasted rain fell overnight and in the morning, and the ground went against him. He didn’t lift a leg and our fate was sealed early on. But to prove the rationale was correct, and we were right to get on at the big price we did, he then sluiced up on his next run in the the Punchestown Festival Cross Country. Despite him disappointing, we did land the bonus double, which was Marine/Jazzy Matty at 166/1. The last 5 seasons have given us 3 places and 2 losers which is ahead at level stakes, but the overall record including last year’s double is now 6 winners, 9 places, and 4 losers, which is significantly ahead. Given prices are usually recommended between 16/1 and 33/1, and the bet is advised each way I’d say that’s a pretty good record, and made even better by the 166/1 double. Perhaps we'll be doing something along those lines again this year 🤔 If anyone is wondering what all the fuss is about, and has no idea what the Naiad is and what it's all about, send me a quick DM and I'll explain.

Fucking Wow! #constitutionhill

@AlexLFC31 @RoadCheltenham @kevinblake2011 Langer Dan running like he did was for his handicap mark though

@RoadCheltenham @kevinblake2011 Langer Dan 2.0 you can already see it coming the way he’s been ridden this season 😂

🟢🟡 Gavin Cromwell tells @kevinblake2011 that he feels INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN "is starting to improve" after a disappointing campaign. 🗣: "The fact that he lit up so well at the Cheltenham Festival both times he’s been there would give you hope."

@jcoops_7 @bookiesdream0 this didn't age well 😎

@kevloaf @bookiesdream0 Just possible fact

Mark Walsh on Majborough: - strangle him - race down the slower inner of the track - get him sandwiched on the run in Who rates this jockey?

@jcoops_7 @bookiesdream0 X suggested this is possible spam 😂

@bookiesdream0 Mark Walsh is the worst jockey in Ireland.

@lorddalham @bookiesdream0 You watched the race and thought it was a claimer? 😂

@bookiesdream0 I must admit I watched the race with no financial interest and I thought it was a claimer did not look comfortable on the horse at all

@RoadCheltenham People will lose their minds if Kopek steps up in trip😂

🤔 If Final Demand switches to the Albert Bartlett, who would Paul Townend ride in the Turners? Kiss Will? Karbau? Finiculi Funicula? ...or does Kopek Des Bordes step up in trip, relying on Salvator Mundi in the Supreme?
