2026 Champion Hurdle

Yabbadabbadoo!!!!!
 
I am obviously in the minority
I don’t think she will win
However,I think it’s worth giving it a go
I’d rather find out this way

I think she is better over a longer distance
I think genuine 2 mile pace will get her out of her comfort zone
She is better when going a slower pace and staying on
It is just my opinion
however,she loves the course and although she will not carry my money I wouldn’t mind seen her win

If you want to leave your options open you’d obviously send her over on the first ferry. Not sure it means anything more than she will be there in good time for the CH if that’s what they decide.

But I hope to fuck they drop the mares hurdle to grade 2 next year cos I’m sick of this shite.

I think the market for this is way wrong. I would have Golden Ace favourite, on the basis of her runs behind State Man. That's the best two mile form on offer, and if you were to believe the trainer she is better this year than last. Not sure who would be second favourite, but it would be either Brighterdaysahead or Lossiemouth. The New Lion would be a distant fourth favourite. He has nothing on the table at two miles that warrants him being anywhere near favourite, and you could also question what he has achieved over further. He is one of, if not the worst favourite of the meeting.
