Champion Hurdle 2021

[Istabraq]

He was specifically asked about Sharjah and responded along the lines of ‘don’t forget Saldier, we were very happy with his run and he is the one who will continue to improve’

OK thanks MS, interesting...

Saldier is available at 14-1 for the Irish Champion hurdle.

And 20-1 NRNB for the Champion hurdle.

So the specials prices on him are absolute dogshit value.

Navajo Pass unlikely to run in Champion Hurdle. Trainer/Owner preference is Aintree Hurdle.

Not surprised. Got absolutely no chance of winning the CH. He is essentially a handicapper.

....I thought NP hurdled impressively yesterday and McCain has spoken of him being top drawer. I have it in mind he could be aimed at next years Stayers but time will tell if he’s in that class.

Joe Chambers gave a very positive nod to Saldier backers on Luck on Sunday there

Good to hear! I was similar after his comeback run, obviously you’re not delighted when a horse you fancy doesn’t win but he got to a point in the race where imo he just tired.

If JC is correct which you more often than not expect from a Mullins horse on seasonal reappearance, then there will likely be a good deal of improvement.

Was actually quite surprised people were talking of the County for him I am nowhere near as good a judge as a lot of people on here but that did seem a bit wide of the mark for me.

Agree. I should have checked the individual prices before I posted

Apologies if I've missed something, but had anyone seen any quotes on if Epatante goes straight to the champion or if they're gonna take another race in somewhere?

Kevloaf what was said by Ruby about the rides here for WPM out of curiosity?

I see you mentioned it in the Ryanair thread but didn’t want to start to derail that
