Champion Bumper 2021

[The King Pimm]

I’ve been topping up on Ramilles every week since DRF, I think we’ll see a much improved effort at the Festival and is the best value bet of the race at the moment. I’ll also be backing Grangee soon, she came on massively from her first run behind Eileendover and the better ground may bring more improvement.

 

[Top Of The Form]

Would not give up on Ramillies

Stopped very quickly after being headed, think he is better than that.

Taken the 33's as is still a horse with plenty of improvement to come, and should still be followed

Got a good mention today by Willie..."lot more to offer..big strong horse"

Happy taken the 33's but gone in again at 25-1 [Bet 365] NRNB

Obviously not one for this year now, but Deploy the Getaway goes tomorrow. 200k Cheveley purchase for Willie who has not been seen for two years since hacking up in his P2P.

Another horse who will be novice hurdling at 7, novice chasing at 8, 9 before open company. Hope they scrap 6yo running in bumpers going forward or at least those who have been in a ptp etc.

Yeh I think recency bias could fade and SG could go off fav. All the money today is for Three Stripe Life, sea of blue

"Sounding like Willie might be reluctant to pit Sir Gerhard against Kilcruit, this soon after moving stables. Maybe hold your bets until 48hr decs"

If I owned him he’d be in a box & going to Henry’s with the rest of them

Steady on you will give people heart attacks.

Mullins said

He said: “Sir Gerhard is a fine horse. His form looks very good and he looks like he could be anything, as he’s got all the qualities of a good horse. It’s going to be very tough changing stables so soon before the race, but we’ll see what we can do.”

The Weatherbys Champion Bumper is the closing race on Day Two of the 2021 Cheltenham Festival, on Wednesday 17[SUP]th[/SUP] March.

Just says it won't be easy. Nothing about not running

Read the actual article it's just his interpretation.

This would send me over the edge if he stayed at home.

Surely CPS will pull rank on this one. They’ll want 3 in a row in the bumper, and know they have a great opportunity. When does Willie start travelling over? Can’t be much longer

Read the actual quote above. Nothing about not running him. Just saying it wont be easy changing stables which we all know and makes sense that he mentioned it. The horse is 6 and didn't go over hurdles for this race. If hes fit hes running surely

Yeah that quote appeared between me reading the original comment, logging on, making a cup of tea, and finishing my comment :excitement: Got to love a Friday morning, especially the one for the festival.

Are you kidding, owners pulling rank ?
