Champion Hurdle 2027

That was all too predictable. Hopefully Lobos filled his boots ahead of tomorrow
Have backed both Alexei and MDP for Churdle as cover just in case something did happen to Lossy so happy they'll avoid each other.

Will MDP go Gerry Feilden at the end of the month now?

He’s definitely being careful with him, so they obviously think a lot of him.
He is saying the owners have one race in mind, the CH, so whatever they do with him, it’s all about being right on the day.
Not sure at all that they have a definite plan or route to March.
Thats how I see it right now anyway.

The Handicapper 🤣into a best 20/1 now for CH but a General 16's
 
You will be pleased to know @Lobos I pulled the trigger on Alexei today. Had no choice with the MDP withdrawal
 
You just know he's going to do it on the Bridle. My 2nd fav horse.
Think it quite refreshing that a horse rated in the 120’s a year ago becomes a fav horse .
Think he’s as high as he can go now,I guess it just depends on the opposition as to what graded races he can snap up going forward.

Maybe another 8-10lb improvement from last season I reckon when they didn't know what horse they had. Today should set him up lovely for the FF.
 
Will you be crying in your Stella, when mange tout puts him in his place
8lb is a big pull. Be good to see last year's juvenile form put to the test and she is a C/D winner so it's no pushover. Everyone is dismissive of Nicky's horse as well who has some very good back form.
