Haha Ham im on Pentland at 9s and in an open race I think he has a cracking chance as long as it ain’t Heavy.
Robbie Power starting to sound a bit bullish on his ride
I have had two bets for CH at biggish prices.
Fusil Raffles @ 25/1, if you can forgive one run in the Christmas Hurdle he would have a chance.
Coeur Sublime @ 25/1, again one poor Christmas run (followed by wind operation) to be forgiven.Rein, I hope you’re right about Fusil, but he needs to improve big time. I’m not too worried about him going straight there, but certainly worried about Kempton.
Fingers crossed, but I’m not confident.
Dont think benie running was ever likely
Wonder if the confirmation of no saldier or klassical dream has henry de bromhead and honeysuckles owner having another think
I think it might FF.
I’m currently on Honey at 40s and traded out. Darver Stars at 50s and Cilaos at 14s.
Still feel i might be onto a loser ha.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!I think it might FF.

Still feel i might be onto a loser- Cilaos was impressive enough to be fair to him + is pretty talented.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!“We will monitor the situation over the weekend and will regularly update everybody with any news. Both my vets and I are more than hopeful this will not interfere with her Champion Hurdle preparation.
“She’s now on medication which will not affect her racing or training. We will blood test and scope her again on Monday when I will be in a better position to clarify the situation, which obviously we all hope will be positive news.
“I would like to make it very clear that, touch wood, she is the only horse who has coughed at Seven Barrows at any stage this week.”
Henderson on epatante
Thanks for the update FF. Of course, we believe Nicky 100% that no other horse at Seven Barrows has even dared to cough AT ANY STAGE this week.
Not sure why benie has been shortened to fav because of thid, i highly doubt they were not running here to avoid epetante lol her possible demise surely wouldnt be the catalyst to switch BDD here…
Surely due to the weather forecast more than anything else. With rain scheduled every day up until the festival, the Champion Hurdle could turn into a slog and this would bring Benie right into the equation.
Two dry days forecasted before the start and light rain up until then nothing heavy is due, virtually 0 chance of a slog, as with every year, unless 24 hours before and the day of it lashes down, it will drain and be no worse than soft, last year it lashed down from the night before right up until the supreme and it was “soft”
If this long range forecast is correct and the sunday/monday is dry, theres no chznce whatsoever of a slog
The rain makes honeysuckle more likely to run youd think, as would the possible sickness of epatante
No chance benie runs
Willie has his eye on punchestown and autieul again with her youd assume and isnt gonna bottom her in the champion hurdle over the wrong trip
Have settled on cornerstone lad @ 40-50s he would have been ahead of pentland hills LTO off levels, dont rate the form highly atall, dont rate pentland hills but ill take a swing on a horse thats definitely being overlooked will also throw a few quid on silver streak @30s+ Loves cheltenham.
people seem negative on cilaos, but hes got a better chance than than the front two by a mile IMO
This will mostly be a laying race for me though, will be kneck deep against pentland and and epatante, not saying neither can win this, but its incredible how short both are, if you use silver streak as a formline you have cornerstone lad 10x the price of the fav for beating the same horse
