Champion Hurdle 2018

If he won by a ridden half a length you still think he'd be fav of this race?

I don't think he would be, but I also think he will win easier against this opposition.

Its hard to price up, I hope he wins as he should against this opposition and goes very short, buveur dair drifts.

But unfortunately horses seem to shorten without drifting out others these days.

Yeah the bookies will only be drifting Buveur Dair over their dead bodies today
 
Took 6/1 a few weeks ago just in case alls well,fingers crossed

Yep. There's a lot of people out there who will get on if he completes and shows hes back to relative fitness. If he wins that number just increases
 
You into your NFL HF? If so, do you think the Rams can beat the spread at the Vikings? +2.5 is tempting me.


I’ve not really got a read on that one, in my head I still can’t believe Goff is the real deal, but I’d also never back case Keenum!

My plays for tonight are Falcons ML(homer pick as I’m a fan) and Lions -3
 
Wooooooshhhhh. Love him! Good enough for me off a 665 day break!
 
He's back alright
 
If he turns up, he looks unbeatable. He is simply a freak.
 
Faugheen was good it's what you hoped for/ expect from such a good horse. Buveur dair is better than anything hes faced so far . Just really Hope they both make it there safe.

Buveur D'air will have to improve on what he's achieved so far but he certainly could. It'd be a great clash.
 
If only I could get that 5/1 buveur dair. Faugheen my biggest winner of the 2 now after the double with north hill Harvey. If someone else goes 5s i'd be happy to take it.
 
I hope Nicky didn’t let Buveur D’air watch that – he wont sleep for a week
 
Wow the machine there, impressive after long lay off, CH could be fascinating come March

You'll be able to get it in the shops Scoob.
 
Hopefully that's the full Jenkins hype over and done with, didn't believe in him anyway, still don't.
