Abstrakt: THE big-race trials are over and the time to correct any slip-ups is minimal. Expect nerve-endings to be frayed and nails to be chewed in stable's up and down the country during the next two weeks in the final countdown to the Cheltenham Festival.

Somewhere out there is a horse or jockey whose season's dreams will come crashing down around them. On Saturday, the Gold Cup favourite's jockey, Ruby Walsh, was just inches away from incurring a debilitating injury at Kempton where the flailing hooves of faller Pur De Sivola thudded into his back before he defied the pain and suffocating feeling of struggling to breath to win the Pendil Novices' Chase on Oslot.
