She made winning look easy yet again. Brave ride by Blackmore. Adagio going ok until the mistake - Aintree next for Adagio?
On reflection Epatante was the value e/w bet!Last edited by Supermaster; 15 March 2022, 05:03 PM.

Yep, absolutely no doubt in my mind. CH would have pissed that Champion Hurdle today.
Constitution Hill 177p
Ahead now of Golden Cygnet 176.
His story ended tragically, with the Racing world at his feet.
It's been a long time waiting for one to better his rating

Lets hope he stays fit and well. I'd love to see him against Honeysuckle next time at Punchestown but if not taking her on, if SG wins today, a clash between them two would do.

In the greatest era of the Champion Hurdle, he came along as a novice and looked better than any of them.

I was against cons hill based on; irish over english form, hype factor based on hendo having good 2 milers previously..but to my eyes i thought that was unreal how he done that it wasnt until yesterday evening when i watched it again and looked at the times etc. he must be an absolute beast any other year jonbon is an impressive winner there! id imagine aiden was flying on jonbon to be fair and must of thought WHAT THE F**K, that was the performance of the festival im calling it early!

I assume his final race if they thought he was going to beat that field off top weight, but he must have had a mega rating beforehand just to be top weight in that field.
