Paisley/Envoi Allen double then. Pays over 8/1. Nice.

Nobody had Israel Champ for the Champion Bumper but I bet a few have it down now after that today. 12/1 with skybet....

I bet they don't.

Wait, what odds will you give me?


0-2 people = 5/6
3+ people = 5/6


I'll have 6 mythical pts at 0-2 pts please.

[Hurricane fly]

I have him at 25/1

I make that 1-0 Kev. Lol. Seriously though, it was a good run yesterday. He is right to be fave now. Still lots to show their hands of course.

Really liked Champagne classic today. Very nearly had battleoverdoyen. I also had Lady Buttons and Sharjah today who looked great! Just new year races to go (Lalor, Beware the bear, Tommytucker) and then we can go for round two in time for NRNB.

So what has changed....

Well La Richebourg is certainly not coming back this year.... Thomas Darby is probably going back over hurdles so the Arkle is a no go. Even Laurina is not the horse she seemed to be so that Arkle nod is looking shaky too. Rayapour got the vote for the Triumph before but there are a good few names being shouted out there now that were not mentioned back in November/December...

Interested to hear the new thoughts. Also happy to add the handicaps in there if people have ideas there now having seen some of the main players a couple of times...

For my pennies, I still LOVE the following:

Supreme - Abacadabras
Mares Hurdle - Benie Des Deux
National Hunt Chase - Champagne Classic
Ballymore - Envoi Allen
RSA - Champ
Champion Chase - Chacun Pour Soi
Ryanair - Defi de Seuil
Stayers Hurdle - Paisley Park
Albert Bartlett - Thyme Hill
Gold Cup - Lostintranslation
