I backed Allaho last night at 14/1 for the Champion Chase based on Mullins comments and his run on Thursday.
For me he was the most impressive winner of the whole week and how he kept that gallop up was remarkable, look what happened to Min going that pace.
Shiskin is going to be hard to beat but if he wins the 2 mile G1 at Punchestown, Allaho will be clear 2nd best. Energumene for the Ryanair could be a nice related double.

Or does he have a go at the GC? As good as APT was and is only 7, isn’t there some horror stat about not winning the GC unless it’s your first pop? Could be wrong. If that is the case though, then why not send both? I’m not convinced Alaho doesn’t stay just on the basis of that Leopardstown defeat or the narrow 3rd in the RSA ‘19.

There’s no way Willie Mullins will step him back up for a gold cup when he has the Ryanair fav, he goes for the easiest race to win. Cheveley park also have APT and possibly envoi allen for the gold cup and Willie has monkfish and al boum photo so no need to run allaho there at all.

Just seen that SkyBet have opened up a fair few markets in the last hour.
Champion Bumper - The two CP horse's that want to Wille's have been priced up. I've been waiting for this for ages but 20/1 for both of them is a bit skinny, but what can you expect with them winning the last 3 years. I want to hold off and see if anyone else put better prices out there, but can see these being shortened quite quickly
Mares Chase - No standout odds here
