    The New One’s record against the big boys is hardly inspiring though is it.

    I see Paddy Power offering 11/8 Faugheen at the moment. Perhaps that will tempt those who see him as a good thing here?

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    Wouldnt tempt me if it was double the price!

    Very best of luck to those wading in at 11/8 and shorter…

    I’d say we could see 6/4 on the Tuesday morning.

    We could see a lot bigger – albeit to £5 and £10s etc

    Faugheen will be nearer 4/6 when Ruby ceases his false procrastinating.

    I had a dream last night:-

    1. The True One

    2. No One

    3. The New One

    4. The Blue One

    5. The Was One

    6. The Purple One

    7. The Who One

    8. Arctic Fire

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    The bookies know other than a fall that Faugheen wins otherwise they would of opened up a book on him by now to win by 10 lengths.
    It’s the year 2015 and yet bet365 have millions of bets available on in play on the footy yet they and the others cant put up a distance win bet…… :roll:

    Faugheen’s price will be affected greatly by what happens in the first two races. Douvan and UDS go in and it’ll be odds on.

    Equally, the bookies like to chase their losses too on a bad day…could go either way.

    Bit embarrassed, but I actually did have a dream; Faugheen jumping slowly, trailing early on, two outsiders breaking free at the top of the hill, the pack led by The Fly catching them at the last, Faugheen coming form nowhere to win.
    Dreaming about it is going too far, I really need to get a life

    Nigel Twiston Davies doesn’t want to give Faugheen a 10 length lead.
    It’s interesting tactically as I wouldn’t have thought he would want to go stride for stride with Faugheen at too early in the race when the tempo increases as he’ll be burnt out.

    Purple Bay isn’t running in The Champion Hurdle. I think he was worthy of his place but clearly the trainer thinks differently.

    I suppose not everyone is Clive Brittain but it seems pretty defeatist in a fairly open looking affair outside the first three.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    Couldn’t agree more, Steve, although my pocket is talking as loud as my logic. Since the Elite I’ve thought him much better than many gave him credit for. The ground and hill would suit him perfectly.

    I’m not too dismayed in that I believe that something’s going to have to go wrong with Faugheen for him to lose.
