Champion Hurdle 2024

[Quelle Farce]

At least we were saved the farce of Nicky taking CH out this morning due to the change in going.

[Wilts]

State Man ‘boosted’ to Evens on 365, right now.

[Cork All Star]

Somehow I think Henderson would have let him run. It is “The Only Day That Matters” after all.

[Gingertipster]

State Man will obviously probably win, but value is value.

I have massive prices on both Iberico Lord 30 and Nemean Lion 38.

Done Nemean Lion in the betting without market too at 10/1, with savers on Iberico Lord and part saver on Irish Point.

Value Is Everything

Workman like but that was probably due to the ground….job done.

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Bloody Luccia cost me my tricast , he deserves his day but that is miles off CH , he,d have won by even farther than last year

[greenasgrass]

Simple.
Luccia did really well for 3rd too

[Gingertipster]

Good performance by State Man, but what a disgraceful comment by Mullins about Henderson.!

Value Is Everything

[Gladiateur]

A deserved win for a tough, genuine, high-class hurdler.

But Constitution Hill would have beaten him a furlong.

[Wilts]

W.Mullins on ITV, just now, on the win without Constitution Hill running in it:
“To win a Champion Hurdle you’ve got to turn up”.

Ouch!

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Bit sharp of Willie ….. He may have to pay for that at Punchestwown

[Nathan Hughes]

Ginger, nothing a lot of TRF’s have not said themselves
However I agree that Mullins should be more gracious in victory

Blackbeard to conquer the World

[Illavim]

State Man has won more grade 1s than Constitution Hill has had races !

[Marlingford]

Despite this not being the most memorable of Champion Hurdles, State Man is a deserving champion and I’m pleased he’s had his day.

[LD73]

HDLG – On that ground I am not sure even CH would have won as far as last year, let alone further.

[Cork All Star]

State Man’s fourth race this season. He seemed all right, though.

Very surprised he didn’t go off 1/4 or even shorter. What was going to beat him?

[Cork All Star]

“State Man has won more grade 1s than Constitution Hill has had races !”

Exactly. Mullins runs his horses. I know it would be good if there was a bit more competition but fair play to him.
