Does nobody want to win a Champion Hurdle anymore ?
Sir Gino did and he was always a chaser to me. This lad is huge and thats the only special I see available. 4s antepost for the Supreme, unbelievable stuff giving his experience.

I've no idea what the plan was at Seven Barrows, Fighting Fifth to the Wayward Lad not the way to a champion hurdle.
I just don't get the obsession with chasing, I struggle with the approach that the Champion Chase is more prestigious than the Champion Hurdle.
Just my take...

I'll never forget Gino's chase debut, brilliant. Never wanted him over hurdles. Mighty Park screams chaser to me. Doesn't mean he'll go that way.
 
Well, they've taken all the specials down now. Boo!
 
Cracked, had a couple of points on Kaid d'Authie @33/1 & Oscars Brother @66/1 both for the Gold Cup 2027, festival is only 10 days away so it really isn't too early to be thinking of next year, is it???
 
50s for Lulamba gone for the gold cup, didn't think that would last but such a tough race to win and decided happy to get more information at lower odds.

Can see why people have taken that, given nicky had said he'll be going Jango baie route.

If he bolts up in the Arkle there's only one race he'll run in next year.

Thought they wanted to get him up in trip asap myself, if Gino is fit & well they have one that can slot into the QMCC, Gold cup will be a year too soon for him imo, much as it's not one of the original big races I think he'll be looking at the Ryanair.

Now Majborough I could see going up to the GC trip, although that'd be fully results dependant as JP has plenty of stayers coming through, a win in the QMCC and they might just keep him at 2m next season until beaten.

I know exactly what you mean and very possible.

Henderson did say the other day if the both him and Jango would be in the JLT if it was still around this year.

Anyway 50s was interesting.
 
I've just backed Old Park Star again for the arkle, 7s Unibet.

Surely he doesn't mess about with him over hurdles next season. I said the same about Sir Gino, has me doubting myself.

Mighty Park 33s for the champion hurdle worth a dart or are we most likely to see him over a fence?!

Surely fences next season. I've backed it.
