D'Antan looks good in beginners
Le Vent D'Antan looked a class act as he ran out an impressive winner of the Ballymaloe Beginners Chase at Leopardstown. Sun 28th Dec
I've seen 1/18 shots of Nicky Henderson's getting beat and just because they are long odds-on it doesn't mean anything but having Denis O'Regan takes all the pressure off you. I can't understand why he doesn't get more rides in Ireland, as he just fills horses with confidence. He's a horse who will appreciate better ground and had been unlucky until now, but now he has paid for himself.

The only thing I can relate him to is Carvill's Hill when I used to work in Dreaper's. I worked him last Saturday over two miles and ended up going out another mile. He's a proper horse but he's like myself, he's had a lot of problems!. He does a lot of swimming. Cheek-pieces only went on him because he was half waiting on horses to come by him. I said to Denis today 'do me one favour and forget you ever sat on a horse before. Ride him with confidence'. Denis couldn't have carried it out better. He's in on Thursday in a beginners' chase so if his weight is right I might let him take his chance. He cost 300 grand four years ago albeit he hasn't won in four years. He's had a lot of problems in the past but hopefully they are all ironed out now. It was a bit short for him, he was running in three miles two in Cheltenham last year. I'm delighted, it wouldn't be a busy time of year for me.
