      Introduction... how long you been in to racing, fav horse, punting style.

      Definitely going to enforce this although it might put people off
      I'm an amateur when it comes to the horse racing game, i've only been into it for 4/5 years. I never win sod-all despite what research i put into it so i've signed up to FJ to sponge off you lads. Favourite horse at the moment probably has to be Laurina, she makes it look so easy and i'm backing her for the CH.

One I'd backed early in the season and written off being owned by the Rooneys so was a pleasant surprise to see him still entered. 2 from 3 in bumpers and the horse that beat him when he was giving weight has won since. Hopefully an Impressive win today and they might take a chance in such an open bumper this year.
        Did that nicely but found it hard to quantify what it found off the bridle due to the angle, cruised up lovely though

          An excellent reason... the beauty of that is, we have so many opinions that one of us HAS to hit the target

          Welcome to the forum.

          Apoligies everyone else...
          Back to the bumper...

            Yh certainly looks a bit green still, might be one for next season but happy to be on at 66s hopefully I get a run for my money.

                Not missed in the market


                Dangerous comparing times of horses jumping hurdles against not, but AH doesn't do bad with his method so I'll leave him to it

                • Blue Sari
                  Won a slowly run race with a sprint finish, and the form is as bad as it could get.
                  Reckon he's not even in the top 20 bumper horses mullins has, and he's got 21 in training.

                    That turn of foot in that ground was impressive though wasn't it?

                    I think Envoi Allen is going to be a 3 mile horse so think he'll get beaten over 2 miles in this, albeit he looks to have the ability to be going close on talent alone.

                    aaaand Master Debonair beats them both anyway.

                    NB All Kevloaf tips should be ignored in the bumper

                      Would have been against better horses, off a stronger pace.
                      And also if 'a turn of foot' is ordinarily useful in the cheltenham bumper.

                      It's a poor enough race so I'll not go as far as saying it has no chance.

                      I'd expect of the Irish horses that Meticulous and Envoi Allen will be the ones.
                      Don't honestly know about the british horses too much.

                      But if anyone has backed or is considering backing this mullins (without properly looking at the form) horse then they need to take a long hard look at themselves.
                      Then shake their head and sigh.

                      • I disagree with the last bit...

                        Backing all the Mullins horses regardless of the form they've shown, if they won last time out... would see you in profit as a blind system in the bumper?


                        "Form" for bumper horses is tooooo small a sample to get fully caught up in, as the level of improvement run to run is accelerated due to the general ages of the horses?





                        aaaaaand Master Debonair wins this anyway.

                          wouldn't have travelled in any other year.
                          Is Blue Sari his only bumper winner this year ? tis true
                          and season ? can't be true ?

                            His only bumper winner this year,as in from 1st January
                            Some of Wp Mullins stats are hard to believe
                            Never won a champion chase or a gold cup
                            Never won a handicap chase at Cheltenham
                            Never won an Irish grand national
                            Unlucky as he has been in all

                            • seems to be a lot of people saying Envoi Allen lacks pace for this but last years 1-2 Relegate and Carefully Selected are 3m plodders.

                              I was really impressed with Back of the Queue (having been on the Nicholls horse) at Exeter lto. Won't back anything until the day however.

                              • No-one else picked up on Gordon saying that David Pipe liked his?

                                What price was Moon Racer 10 days before his win?
