The National Hunt season comes to an end at Sandown on Saturday.
In a nutshell...
Two favourites, Best Mate and Rooster Booster, pass away;
Several equine stars out through injury including Kicking King, Azertyuiop and Well Chief;
Irish domination of top races continues;
War of Attrition establishes himself as a chasing star;
Paul Nicholls wins the trainers' championship for the first time;
Pipe stable endures its longest run of poor form in recent memory;
Richard Johnson comes close but is unable to wrest jockeys' title from A.P. McCoy;
For me, a disappointing season with so many horses absent from the championship races.
Not to worry, it all starts again at two o'clock on Sunday with the Ludlow Golf Club claiming hurdle.
