Donegal and Kerry are now on the verge of surpassing Tyrone and Kerry as the game’s biggest rivalry. It's great to see. 🙂

Good enough for Ger Brennan. Good enough for Jim McGuinness. No manager should lay a finger on an opposition player.

Armagh and Tyrone are like abstract art. You can't always figure it out. It looks odd and confusing, but it's always worth looking at.

Kerry forced to wear the scarlet letter of defeat for the rest of the championship. Doubt rolling in like fog. Everyone writing them off in late March. I can think of no better county to shoulder such a burden. Rinse and repeat. 💚💛

This is a good stick for Kerry to beat itself with between now and the end of the championship. A good reset. 💚💛

Barton Snow, like Harchibald under Henry Crow. What a ride. I've never seen a horse so poised in the Foxhunters Chase. 👏 👏

An excellent training performance by Cian Collins to get Jazzy Matty to within a whisker of winning back-to-back Grand Annuals. No horse since 1959 has won the race in consecutive years.

Nico de Boinville wants everyone to get out of his way. What ground isn't his, isn't his ground to give away. Other jockeys have the same objective as he does: to win.

Since 2015, Willie Mullins has turned five County Hurdle winners into Grade 1 winning horses: Wicklow Brave, Arctic Fire, Saint Roi, State Man (12 Grade 1s), and Kargese 🤔. That's some training achievement.
