They both only have a PtP victory to their name. Deploy The Getaway would have been part of the bumper team last season but met with a setback, he's now back and will be running in a bumper at some point. I'm not sure if they will kick on with hurdling given his age though and the fact Sir G covers the bumper angle for them already. Reality Cheque took two attempts to win his PtP and will likely start in a bumper too, however, he's also a 5yo so could go hurdling too.

Apologies JM my comment was extremely facetious, I was highlighting the fact they hadn’t raced under rulea and it was a direct reference the the discussion of last night/early this morning...

In that case I misunderstood your intent
You will see from my comments that I'm not calling the winner at this stage either and that's despite the fact I was one of the earliest band members beating the Sir G drum, albeit I started off with the view he'd go hurdling.

Has anyone called the winner yet? Think people have just said SG looked special the other day but no more than that.
Anybody got quotes post race on Brooklyn Glory after her win in yesterdays Cork bumper. Given an RPR of 128 and would get the mares allowance if aimed at Cheltenham
I’m not disputing Sir Gerhard’s ability he is clearly talented, but there are so many horses that have yet to see a racecourse who could easily be similarly talented.
October is not the month to be declaring certainties for any race, let alone the bumper...
There could well be Ista but normally someone has had a titbit about them by now and they have been mentioned so they must be kept very under wraps the past month or so. Time will tell I guess.
David Mullins said last year Willies could barely separate Deploy The Getaway, Ferny Hollow and Appreciate It at home. Must be some tool. I've him backed.
I was in the market for a store at the Land Rover sale in August and fancied a Leading Light filly if she was the right price. It wasn't to be because she cost more than I was prepared for. When I expressed surprise to my agent he said that it was bought for Nicky Henderson because they had the Mahler half brother and thought he might be one of their better 4yo bumper horses.
The name? Firestep. No entries yet and possibly one to follow with interest rather than money.
Repeat of post seemingly lost in the ether between servers:
From Henderson stable tour.
"I love Firestep so much I recently bought his three-year-old half-sister. He's owned by Charlie Dingwall and some pals and does everything right."

Be careful with backing any Henderson horse for the Cheltenham Bumper. He doesn't like the race at all and will avoid it at all costs if he can.
