5 years old already. Could be one bumper and then a hurdle race at Xmas. Good price though.
I would say he will go this way. The Nice Guy won this race for Willie last season before going hurdling.
Plus the bumper on Sunday is the race Willie has normally sent his better bumper horse for that season if they’ve been out that early. Ferny ran in that one. So as per the market Chapeau looks Willies main bumper horse that is going to be out this early
This weekends cards at Fairyhouse could be as strong as the DRF if a lot of the entries get declared. It’s stacked, can’t wait to head along on Sunday! Saturday is usually a stocking filler but it will be anything but if a lot of Willies take their chance.

Appreciate It ran in the Saturday bumper the same year as Ferny won his on the Sunday. So he’s split his two best across the Saturday and Sunday before with both staying in bumpers for the season.
Also, TNG was ineligible for the champion bumper last year, so Mullins had no choice to divert to hurdles in the new year once he was 7.

Ya I believe one bumper race in fairyhouse is for four olds only so it was a natural split that year.
He just ran one in each race as well that year and this year he has 2 entered in each race. Interesting that neither Ferny or Appreciate it, actually won that weekend and ended up 1st and 2nd in March
Only I Am Maximus declared in the opener at Fairyhouse Saturday, disappointing! Against Minella Crooner.
Facile Vega in the 2m maiden against Arctic Bresil.
Nick Rockett declared against Shannon Royale and Steller Story for Elliott.
Good on Henry for taking Vega on with one of his potential big guns. He never backs down from a challenge. This could be reminiscent of Ferny Hollow versus Bob Olinger.
