I thought Mr Fisher won with a lot in hand personally. Alot more to come from him.
Personally think elixir de nutz is fighting it out and showing what he's got.

Tbf I'm on the wrong thread for this chat. So well see what Mr Fisher does at the weekend . I expect further improvement

*****
Expect champ and jarveys plate will meet very soon.

I’ll be there for it I reckon
 
No Carefully Selected tomorrow....the wait goes on.
 
Emitom form franked. 33/1 still available. Keeping my bet with cashout for now.
 
I have cashed out 1 pt e/w on Downtown Getaway 25/1, and backed Jarveys Plate instead at 20/1.

His form looks stronger, and DG is still the same price in places.

Haha, I've not been against him, and the general point about the trainer does ring true to some extent, but I know 100% I'd prefer Jarveys Plate at 20/1 than Downton Getaway at 25/1 so you win :triumphant:
 
Nicky Henderson is considering sending Champ for Saturday’s Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham.

JP McManus named the seven-year-old after former champion jockey Sir Anthony McCoy in the hope he could live up to the name.

So far the omens are good, with Champ registering a Grade One victory last time out in the Challow Hurdle at Newbury.

“Champ came out of the Challow Novices’ Hurdle in good form,” said Henderson.

“It was another good performance at Newbury and Festival Trials Day at Cheltenham is something that I am thinking about for him.

“He did a piece of work last week and we were very happy with him.

“We are looking to go down the Grade One Ballymore Hurdle route with Champ.”

Birchdale, also owned by McManus and trained by Henderson, is also among the 14 entries.

Also, why is this thread titled 2018? :confused:

Looks like Henderson been taking swabs again.
Champ very weak and Birchdale being backed. for trials day
 
Champ, the Grade 1 winner replaced in places as favourite for Saturday's Ballymore Novices' Hurdle by stablemate Birchdale, is still in contention for the Cheltenham contest, the pair's trainer Nicky Henderson said on Tuesday afternoon.

]: "Champ or Birchdale will run. They're both owned by JP and in the same boat.*They did a bit of work this morning and I'll talk to JP, but we'll run one of the two."[/B]
 
Tom Segal’s Ballymore tip is out tomorrow and with that in mind and being in a good position in this race having the first two in the market covered i’ve backed both Birchdale and Jarveys Plate at 20/1 with 365. Depending on how the race goes on Saturday and if both run may look to cash one out. Been meaning to cover these 2 and don’t want TS to ruin the price.
 
And in the trainer quotes in the same article Mouse Morris says he favours Sam’s Profile coming here over the Albert Bartlett
 
“He’s going to Naas on Feb 9th and then we’ll take things from there. His owner sponsors the Ballymore and they’d like to have a runner so he’ll get an entry”
