    I think he's a champion hurdle winner in waiting. 7/1 is fair enough for me. One I'll be chipping away at over the next few months

      What happened to Buveur D'air?



      I won't take much convincing to get fully behind Klassical Dream for the CH over Espoir D'allen.

      Will want to soak it all up for a few weeks before I start chipping away at anything though, see what the prices are after the dust settles.

          Only a fool won't change his opinion, especially 10 months before the festival

          Still a big Buveur D'air fan but I think Klassical Dream could be very special.

              Like many I was keen to have Klassical Dream on side at some point, but that performance tipped me to backing him although I think I jumped a bit too soon. Had a few points at 5.4/1 Any Race with Hills (they kept giving me additional boosts for some reason) but then heard Willie's comments and wish I'd at least split stakes with the Champion Hurdle at the bigger price ideally with 365. Anyway one I'll be chipping away at over the summer. Btw love the way the horse runs with his head bowed, I've really taken to him

              • He’d O’keefe has shared a picture of Sam Spinner jumping a fence...not one for me given how many top Irish horses will be in play for the RSA

                • Hi all, new member here, signed up before this years Festival after being a long time lurker but finally decided to take the plunge and start posting!

                  Anyway not exactly under the radar but I was impressed, not for the first time, with Colreevy at Punchestown. I was keen on her for this years Mares Novice but obviously she didn't run. My only concern is whether the trip could be a bit sharp for her but on the new course I think she could grind away from the front and turn the screw between the last two. The other thing nagging me is that with Willie's apparent lack of quality amongst his bumper horses this season whether she would be pitched into one of the open novice hurdles instead. I haven't seen her priced up anywhere as yet but one I'm definitely keeping an eye on especially with some free bets at my disposal.

                      • City Island was very disappointing. Really thought he was special after what Champ did at Aintree

                          think you've almost got to take this festivals results with a pinch of salt as its the end of a very long hard season for a number of the runners

                          • Just had McFabulous added to the WH any race market at 20/1 so will be 22/1 with a boost.

                            Rarely use Hills but might have 1 or 2U on it

                            • McFabulous gets a mention on the video on here:

                              So much has happened since I arrived here 25 years ago in October, 1991 with eight horses. As the winners began to flow we worked hard to upgrade things...


                              Others include Silver Forever, Flic Ou Voyou, Ask For Glory, Eritage and Enrilo.

                              • Birchdale (Hendersons) ran a great race in Albert Bartlett , cruised round and looked best horse in race how he travelled through race till turning for home. blatantly didn't stay and Hendo said as much , he said he should have switched Birchdale and Champ (got impression he was under pressure to keep Champ at 2.5 at the time.Henderson was and still is very sweet on Birchdale and his only target is the JLT , well worth a punt.
