anti-depressants may be the solution.
My little cat's mum was called Whisper. I first caught a glimpse of Whisper when I was sitting in my friends kitchen. Just her little face (Whisper's) peeping out of a cupboard that was all I could see of Whisper. Here is a pic: of Whisper's daughter Daisy

"DURING the
Cheltenham Festival we receive many questions from racegoers. It has been my
job to answer them. Here, without their permission, is a selection.
"Dear Sir
"I still can't
believe Get Me Out Of Here didn't get up in the Coral Cup. A short ********
head! Is there anything I can do about it?
PS I've already sent an abusive
letter to Tony McCoy
"Dear Nick
"It may be worth
giving citalopram a try. Some people find that watching a program about other
people who have lost all their money helps a bit. "
"Dear Sir
David Pipe is a lot taller
than Martin Pipe, isn't he? Why's that then?
Dear Peter
Yes. Carol Pipe "
Dear Peter
Yes, Carol Pipe

Dear Peter
Magic Moments
When you see
David with his Dad Martin at the races you realise how tall David actually is.
But not so
much when you see David on his own. Have
you noticed how observant Martin is at the races? Anything the horse needs, Martin gets. Anything David needs Martin is there with it. One of my magic moments last week was when Dynaste partner Tom Scudamore won the Ryanair Chase. What I call a ping, ping, ping win. Yes, yes, yes a fabulous performance of horse and rider accurately in-tune with each other, every step of the way.
Magic Moment for Team Pipe
Clue: Famous Steeplechase
Winner? Race? Year? Date?
Partner? Minder?
"Dear
Sir
This
is the last time I'll be coming to the Cheltenham Festival. and I've been
coming for 73 years. My Doctor says I've only got three months to live. "
"Dear Reg
I'm
sorry to hear that. Still, if that's what your doctor told you, I
expect he's right. Try to think
positively. It has been getting very crowded. "
Dear Reg
Your doctor could be wrong. The British medical profession are all at sea like Daisy up her tree. Entwined in a stranglehold of political red tape.
"Dear
Sir
I
arrived in Cheltenham on Tuesday, much looking
forward to the performance of Schuberts's Trout Quintet at this year's
festival. What's going on? "
"Dear Franz
We have looked into this and can see
how the problem has arisen. I suggest you come back in July for the Cheltenham Music Festival. In the meantime you might like
to enjoy the music in the Guinness
Village , or the trout in
the Panoramic Restaurant. "
"Dear
Sir
A
group of us got chatting in the queue for the cash machine and have come up
with a simple idea that would make the festival a lot better. Have a maximum
field size of 12. It's the only way I'm ever going to find the winner of the
Coral Cup. "
"Dear Harry
As you say, its a simple idea but
also rather silly. Anyway, you still wouldn't
be able to find the winner of the Coral Cup. It's not a race where
you're supposed to find the winner. No- one has ever found it. "
"Dear
Sir
This
is my first time at Cheltenham and I've found
it a bit puzzling. On Thursday a man approached me and said: "You've got a
backside like Annie Power. " I don't know Annie Power but perhaps she is a
racing lady. Does it mean anything to you? I didn't know whether to be pleased
or cross! "
"Dear Katie
It was a compliment. Annie Power is a woman with a notably fine
bottom. "
"Dear
Sir
My
son and I have been having a bit of an argument and wondered if you could
settle it with us. He says Sire De Grugy is a certainty for the Champion Chase
while I say Cheltenham doesn't suit him and he
won't win. What do you think? "
"Dear Garry and Jamie
On balance, I think your son is right Sire De Grugy will definitely
win. It's just a matter of by how far? It wouldn't surprise me if he won by six
lengths. "
Dear Garry and Jamie
On balance, I think your
son is right as well, and a lot of other people including David thought the same
of Sire De Grugy, he has performed so well to win in all his races easily,
an SP of 11-4 at Cheltenham.
A word of warning there is
never a certainty in Jumps Racing. Because sometimes the
tiniest mistake made in a race by one horse and rider can bring a lot of the
other horses down like a pack of cards as we saw last week several times.
Have you heard the story
of Charlie Day? Who died disputing his right of way. He was right, quite right
as he drove along. But he's just as dead as if he'd been dead wrong.
"
Dear Sir
On
Tuesday I backed Champagne Fever, My Tent Or Yours and Shotgun Paddy. On
Wednesday I backed Smad Place ,
Get Me Out Of Here and Any Currency. On Thursday it was Southfield Theatre. I
am thinking of killing myself. What can I do?
"Dear Ernest
Your own suggestion seems a
reasonable one. Did you back him each-way?
"Dear
Sir
Is
there anything more irritating when you have been beaten a short head than
someone asking: "Did you back it each way? " I think not. "
"Dear Lucy
I think you're right. "Your money's only lent" is pretty irritating but not as bad."
"Dear Lucy
I think you're right. "Your money's only lent" is pretty irritating but not as bad."
"Dear Sir
Would you believe it? I'm from
Rochdale and in 1996 I went to their game against Cardiff City .
Cardiff 's in South Wales and Fingal Bay 's
in New South Wales but I didn't think of it
until after Fingal
Bay won the Pretemps
Network Final. How unlucky can you be? I hate racing. "
"Dear
Stephen
I
sympathise with you because, only last week, I commented on how many hawks you
see nowadays and, lo and behold, Hawk High wins the Fred Winter Juvenile Hurdle
at 33-1. So you don't need to tell me about bad luck. "
Dear Stephen
The Fred Winter Juvenile Hurdle is always a good race to pay special attention to because you will get a good guide to some of the very best novice hurdlers and their connections (trainer team - owner ) a good race to follow to make up your own Jumps Reference File of the horses who ran in this last week. Hawk High! the winner for instance what Trainer Team and Owner connect to Hawk High? Who was second to Hawk High? How many lengths did Hawk High win by? Who was third ... etc. Check out in the Racing Post the next day the results, RP give good info of how all the races pan out to be. Note down in your own Jumps File all detail available on the runners that caught your eye in this race.
"Dear Sir
I don't really like racing but I come
to the festival every year to buy clothes. They have things I only seem to be
able to find at Cheltenham . Do you know if
there is anywhere else I can get them? "
"Dear Charlotte
No, I'm afraid not. They do only sell
them at Cheltenham . "
Dear Charlotte
You can get this information from the people who have the shops at Cheltenham Racecourse just ask them to give you their contact number, address etc.

REVIEW CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL 2014
Tuesday March 11.
2.05 Racing Post Arkle
Rock on Ruby partner Noel Fehily found it tough at the third fence, made a bad mistake nearly losing Noel, who just managed to cling on, but lost his whip. Rock on Ruby has lost his way a little bit over the big fences. So much bigger than the hurdles which he skimmed over with such ease and success.
Perhaps that is part of the problem he is tackling the fences like he used to tackle the hurdles. Noel will find out the root cause of such mistakes. It is really tough for the horses when they have to compete at speed in a race with many other horses all around them to distract him, bring him down even, can happen so fast, like greased lightening. Very dangerous.

NEWS
Ruby set for one more run after
festival flop
"ROCK ON RUBY, who finished a
well-beaten eight of nine in the Racing Post
Arkle Chase at Cheltenham, is set to have one more start this season
when trainer Harry Fry is confident he has got over the experience of suffering his first defeat over fences,
writes Jon Lees' .
"The former Champion Hurdle
winner blundered away his chance at the third fence, where jockey Noel Fehily
lost his whip, but completed the race to finish 52 lengths behind winner Western Warhorse. (Team Pipe)
"Fry said: "His race was
over at the third. Noel performed a minor miracle, the sit of the week, to keep the partnership
intact but after a mistake like that it was all over. His confidence took a bit
of a knock and he made a few smaller mistakes after. We will get him going at
home before confirming his next target. I'm very much hoping to get him out
again this season.
"The stable's main runner at
the Grand National meeting will be Activial
in the 4yo Juvenile Hurdle, the winner of the Adonis Hurdle having
bypassed the Triumph Hurdle to wait for Aintree.
"Activial is on target for the
four-year-old hurdle, " Fry added. "I'm really looking forward to
running him after his good performance in the Adonis. Mendip Express didn't go
to Cheltenham and is on target for the Scottish
National on April 12. "
NEWS:
"Fenton (IRE) drugs hearing to
resume today
"TRAINER Philip Fenton should
learn today when he will face trial for possession of anabolic steroids, writes
Jessica Lamb. "
Put in the hands of The Department
of Agriculture totally useless no way should a matter as this be so flippantly tossed to this Bloodhorse Illiterate Department of Agriculture, not nearly good enough. The problem
being a refusal of horseracing government in both Ireland, Britain, India and in America people in these countries have absolutely no respect for the racehorses or the people who work with them every day. No recognition whatsoever of the part played by the racehorses, that there is a key Equus Zone missing in these four countries to handle all this side of things Britain, Ireland, India and America no doubt same throughout other countries who go to make up global horseracing.
