Ah right I noticed it was entered up in both so just assumed the Arkle. Will keep an eye on it but was on Binocular and Ashkazar back in October so again (hopefully) a healthy position!

The Champion Hurdle is an awesome race this year if you ask me.



Binocular looks great, then you have past winners -



Katchit

Sublimity

Hardy Eustace

Brave Inca



The first 2 could very well run into a place.



Then you have -



Celestial Halo

Punjabi

Osana

Ashkazar

Snap Tie.



Excellent renewal of the race.



If the ground is good then Snap Tie at 33s could be an excellent EW bet, just depends on how much they water the course at Prestbury Park.

Can't wait for it to start. I am a bit joe flint this year so can only afford £10 per race.



Have backed the following so far -



Red Maloney - e/w - Supreme Novice

Well Chief e/w - Champ Chase

Jered e/w - Champ Hurdle

Forpadydeplaster e/w -Arkle

Scriptwriter e/w - Pertemps



Lots of studying of the formbook to be done over the weeked.

Any good tips for the bumper this year?

willie mullins - though prob odds-on to have the winner

Sicilian Secret was impressive at Leopardstown when he had a gallop there the other day, which has shortened him up in the market as a result. However, 4/1 in most places is quite a short price.



There is one i like at a big price in the bumper, and that is Vino Griego, trained by Gary Moore. Ok, he will be slightly older than the other horses in the bumper and isn't trained by Willie Mullins or an Irish counterpart

but he won his last race at Ascot well, and was a good 2nd on his first race.

I've backed Vino too Gaz. Also had a saver on Quinola Des Obeaux - been very impressive so far and as Mullins has said in recent days it's possible that all his Bumper contenders this year are better than his winners in the past so in that regard I wouldn't put anyone off backing any of his contenders (especially Quinola and Morning Supreme who handled a similarly hilly track when successful at Downpatrick late last year).

i presume ruby will get the choice

Think Paddy Mullins might get first pick of the Mullins horses then Ruby. Only Katie Walsh confirmed jocked up on Morning Supreme.

Mullins will be on the favourite (Sicilian Secret) i think.

My antepost book is almost full now. Just got a couple of races to look at but pretty much in an attacking position now.



Will look again each overnight to find some value on the day but happy with my starting point at the minute.





Vino Griego - not running in bumper according to sportinglife.

do u usually make money with this method
