    I’m suprised a lot of the “mainstream” bookies haven’t got him in their Champion Bumper markets

    • I know he's a hype job and that, so will be interesting to see, but wouldn't be surprised to see him being a little bit of a letdown. Travelling head girl's horse bolts up and goes for mega money....probably ready to win that day to get her a big pot.....

        I noticed that earlier when looking for a price.

          • ...backed Shadow Rider for this at fancy prices, but it’s another that is leaving it very late to run. Saying that, other than PP most of the main bookies are not taking too much risk.

            Surely the Bumper winner will at least have had an entry by now.

            • I’ve got Hills to add him at 33/1

                I am always wary of backing a jp horse in this
                I know he has had a few horses place in it
                But I think if they feel they have a really good prospect they try to avoid this race
                Feeling is this race is too hard on a young horse and will damage it’s long term career

                • Energumene shortening a little on the exchange, small chance we may see a surprise weekend entry at Leopardstown?

                    • I don't bet on the exchange or understand it 100% tbh but he was like 31 earlier and is now 4.1, maybe someone who has a better grasp of it can shed some light

                        Basically everything that was available to be backed was taken, the shortest and last price being at 20/1....fingers crossed

                        • ....just had a quick look at last 6 Champion Bumper Winners, and from what I can see the latest seasonal debut for any was 13th January from Relegate.

                          It’ll need to buck a trend if this years winner hasn’t been out yet.

                            Another Stay Humble perhaps.

                            I haven't cashed Eugerererereerererererememememe but I probably will in the coming weeks

                            • Only 3 entries so far for both bumpers at DRF

                              I assume they will come late but that’s surprising to me atleast

                              And I’ve given up on Energumene, as you said Kev, another Stay Humble only I haven’t got cash out this time


                              Edit: up to 9 and 7, looks like Giggi will have quite a few on the Saturday

                              • Mullins got Rebel Og and BOTANI entered in mares bumper sunday.
                                Could do with a price before sunday on Botani.
