County Hurdle 2018

I cant stop backing Flying Tiger. Unbelievable rick on his mark imo.

Call Me Lord currently allotted 11-08 and Flying Tiger 10-10, despite the fact FT finished 1/2l behind him in the Kingwell giving him 2lb.

My biggest handicap winner of the week by some margin now.

Yes he is mine now too.

Not gone mental but 33s and 20s NRNB are my plays and I'm happy with that.
 
Does anyone know if Hardline is likely to head here ?
Winner of a G2 hurdle last weekend and little more than a length behind Getabird in the book, the Irish 'capper had him 135 before last weeks win so effectively penalised 5lb for his G2 win.
A winner on good and heavy I'm struggling to see how he's sneaked in here off 140...
 
Does Lagostovegas go here? Her flat form would suggest she wants further but over hurdles she seems to travel and jump but doesn't finish off as if she wants any further than the minimum. On that basis this would seem the more likely target although the hill would be a concern.
 
Voix Du Reve id be adding here if this is the target. Fancy that one more than any other mullins horse that could line up, think he needs 2 miles not further, as highlighted by his performance in the Fred winter where he was right up there when falling

I believe he goes to fairyhouse


After race at*Naas Sun, 25th Feb, 2018 (1st)**He's grand and consistent. He keeps doing it and he's a bit like Mitchouka yesterday,. He battled better than I thought he would. He was giving everything weight so that was a nice performance. We'll look for something in Fairyhouse. I'd say we'll keep him at home.**Gordon Elliott
 
I'm on for a few bob too - fingers crossed FLYING TIGER

For those of you sweet on Flying Tiger for this... PP are 25/1 NRNB at the moment for some strange reason? 12's and 14's elsewhere.

Spotted that myself but seems to be an oddschecker error as i logged on and they were 12/1!
 
Do we know if Max Dynamite is running in this? Caught the end of the RP preview and no mention again fron Patrick.

I've got a small ante post wager on Chesterfield for this and don't know how to feel about it winning a bumper at Kempton today. Wasn't too bothered about it running in the race, thought it could be classed as a racecourse gallop but now it's gone to all the bother of actually winning I can't help thinking it's now a negative, although the market disagrees slightly.
