Champion Hurdle 2020

Would Quick Grabim be in with a shout for this? Obviously abit like Sharjah where he performs much better when the ground is on the quick side so chancing that but at 66s it might not be a bad EW bet if he were to run respectably tomorrow on less favoured ground.
 
Willing to put my hands up tomorrow if I'm wrong but I couldn't back Fusil Raffles with stolen money for the CH.
 
Good news about Saldier. What do people think about the 16/1 about Fusil Raffles to win Christmas Hurdle and Champ Hurdle. I've taken it which gives me Klassical Dream, Saldier, Sharjah and Fusil Raffles for the CH (obvs if Fusil Raffles wins Boxing Day). Enough coverage for me.

Hello SamuelP

Which bookie is that with, I'm considering it this morning but can only see 12/1 which isn't worth it.

I'm not certain 16s is - I kind of just want him beat today :confused:
 
Found the 16/1, WH - Fusil to win today and CH
40/1 for Epatante same double.
 
I’d actually give silver streak a chance in the Christmas hurdle today, thought his run behind buveur dair was quite encouraging considering he flattened the third last. He won’t mind the conditions, I think he’s a pretty solid each way bet today. I’m not saying he’s good enough to win the Champion hurdle but he had some nice ones in behind when finishing 3rd last year, inc verdana blue
 
McManus is slamming his money down on Epatante. She looks like going off fav today which will be a surprise.

Yeah, I agree. Not for this race but a decent each way bet today.... if any of Henderson's flop.

I think his money would come later than 11am?


Somebodies money is coming though!




Get on the 40/1 Christmas Hurdle / Champion Hurdle double JP, if you're reading this! :highly_amused:

Agree. If she wins this then the 40's will look rather sweet. Already backed her at 25's....not having another penny on this race, done far too much as it is.

Perfect if she does, would allow me to have a proper bet on fusil raffles in a match with her at 10/11 or evens.

Yep. Tidy bet that'll be.

Seen you have found it Kev at Hills. I wasn't overly keen on the price, I just think that's the one horse in UK that could potentially be a lot better than anything else in UK this season. I like my coverage of the Irish horses at good prices so thought it was worth it to be on board. Obvs if loses I'm not on board and wouldnt want to be lol

Even if he fell at the last 5L infront?
 
Couldnt have called than in a million years. Very well done whoever has backed her.
 
Epatante yippee.....Main CH bet looking good

Must be best form so far and right colours to win a CH

I think his money did come late.

Did you get on the special too Lobos?

Just heard the quotes for CH for her now, jeez
 
I would now be slightly concerned that she doesn’t like Cheltenham. Only bad race she’s ran was at Cheltenham in a very weak race.
