IT seems the theme of the week following the Cheltenham Festival is how to reconstruct the racing there to maximise the excitement and minimise the monotony of a series of short-priced winners.

I applaud the concept, but not always the execution here. Some of the proposals are too utopian and don’t deal with the reality of a potential reset of the Festival and some of them are just wrong, but there is plenty of sense being talked between the two.
