Champion Bumper ‘25

Elliott said: “He looks a nice horse and is a big stayer for next year.

“He has a good attitude, and you’d like the way he dropped his head and galloped to the line.

“He looked flat out halfway down the back. He’ll stay in bumpers this season and he’s a next year horse really.”

Gives the impression he has a few better at home perhaps.
 
Gigg haven't always been that keen on Champion Bumper.....know they have had the odd runner recently, but that's a v short price

He's also only 4 at the mo......another reason one could see them ducking Chelt

Meetmebythesea winning there, was 2nd to He Can't Dance in their PTP. Mentioned by Elliott in RP's jump off.​
 
Sortudo wins easy enough. Unlikely to be one of Willie's best, but bodes well for Ma Jack's Hill who beat Sortudo in his PTP.

Patrick Mullins said afterwards, “Authorized is a brilliant sire and Jody did well to get him settled. I think there should be a lot of improvement in him.

“He’s an exciting horse going forward and will probably stay in bumpers this year.

“We’ll see how he comes out of the race and look at Leopardstown over Christmas. He could be at the top end of our bumper horses.” Karniquet ridden by Jody’s brother Paul, also caught the eye when taking the opening maiden hurdle on the card.

Crikey. If that’s one of their best then it’s a good boost for MJH or they don’t have a great crop this year. The first one to get the “Christmas” appointment .

I'll stick my neck out and say that its far from inconceivable that Sortudo couldn't reverse that 2l defeat by Ma Jacks Hill (who'd had previous P2P experience too). Sortudo came from off the pace that day and couldn't reel in the eventual winner. Sortudo also has the stronger page. Given relative improvement from each trainer, they could be both on a similar level this season.

The two of them looked impressive in that P2P. It was eye catching how long both took to pull up after the line. Ma Jacks Hill really stuck his neck out after hitting the last. Looking forward to seeing what he can do over the weekend.

40/1 with cash out seems fair about Sortudo after that and getting the nod for Christmas. Didn’t expect to find that price.
 
Ma Jacks Hill vs You Proof on Saturday. Mentioned plenty on here so could be a good clash.

Yep. I mentioned on the entry thread that it's Gordon's 'One' versus Patrick Mullins bumper horse to follow. I'd say the winner will be short afterwards.
 
Do you think he's Gordon's top Bumper horse JM?
