Racing Post Website says Binocular misses the Champion Hurdle.
Been under performing all season so no surprise something’s come to light.
Value Is EverythingWhat i’d like to know is why has it only come to light now, 3 months after his very below par effort in the Fighting Fifth.

I thought the forum experts that understand how the trainer operates had written he’d been underperforming due to the trainer not having him fit? Ho hum….
Binocular never looked as good as he did at Ascot a couple of years ago when thrashing Celestial Halo (in the rearranged Bula Hurdle from Cheltenham?)
I know it took ages before the connections of Tidal Bay worked out there was a problem with their horse, maybe its the same with Binocular.

Muscle problem my eye.
Did you have to practice to become a twat or does it come natural?

What price he’s never seen again?
What will Fist do now?You offering one? Better they found out now than after the race that’s for sure
What will I do now?
Took me about 30 seconds to work that one out.
The way I saw the Champion Hurdle unfolding was Binocular making his move earlier this year instead of AP holding him up. He’s the one horse, when right, who has the speed to go with Go Native and apply the pressure that could see him fold.
Now he’s gone the race could end up being a modest renewal. I think both Solwhit and Zayanar will be caught out by sudden injections of pace about 4 out especially the latter. Punjabi isn’t the horse he was, Khyber King would have to improve a stone and Celestial Halo is completely goosed.
I just can’t see anything in the race that will live with Go Native’s when he goes for hom and I don’t think he’ll be hanging about until after the last and getting into a fight with the likes of Solwhit……..They ride him like they did in the Supreme I think he’s a moral now. He would haver to have improved since then but I think that goes without saying.
Knowing the bookies when Zayanar hacks up at Kelso they’ll cut him to 3/1 or something crazy like that and hopefully Go Native will drift a bit, but he should be 3/1 himslef now IMO…….So get your Euro’s out the freezer Carv and invest in an Irish win.

You tell me, you’re the expert.
After this mother of all bombshells, I would have thought ‘bin-ning’ this years renewal would be the only honourable thing left to do; I mean, where’s the quality now?
Such a shame, when Celestial Halo, Punjabi, Crackaway Jack, Muirhead and Katchit have franked last years form so emphatically. ‘Binny’, would have course, pissed up.
Some real hurdlers to look at this year.
