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.

Favourite horse at the moment probably has to be Laurina, she makes it look so easy and i'm backing her for the CH.
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...

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

Reckon he's not even in the top 20 bumper horses mullins has, and he's got 21 in training.
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

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.

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 allLast edited by Liammet; 1 March 2019, 01:20 AM.
