2025 Champion Hurdle

[Lobos]

Does seem strange why she would be pitched at such a high level over 2m

Maybe there aren’t some nice easier mares races to get her race fit?……trust in Jeremy methinks

66/1 for the CH and would need to find around 23lbs to trouble State Man on official and RPR ratings……can’t see it myself

Got to be the bet @ 10/1 for the MH at the moment with chaos around the CH and as a result Lossie probably certainly going for the CH now, Brighterdaysahead a maybe and Willie not decided around JDG hurdling or chasing this year.

He has mentioned her having to take on the boys this season a few times due to limited MH opportunities. I fully expect her to revert to the MH at the festival. She's already won easily over 2 1/2m at Cheltenham so no issues there.

Im not sure State Man would beat BDA in the CH.....his runs at Chelt have been his lowest rated and that hill will really suit BDA

Lots can change, but wouldn't be shocked if this is between BDA and Lossie and poss Sir Gino

If Gordon/Giggistown agree with you then BDA has to go CH surely?…if Constitution Hill doesnt run then this must increase the likelihood even more?

Constitution Hill update:

Henderson said: "He's miles, miles better this morning. I seriously hope we can get back on the road so we can continue his preparation. Obviously the Fighting Fifth is out, but the Christmas Hurdle is still realistic. He won it last year, so let's hope that is where we can get him out so we can get his great career back on track."

That’s news to get me more hopeful
Cheers COD

I've got to be honest, I've given up listening to him...

He's difficult to listen to now, that's for sure.

Every bloody time he talks about Constitution Hill he mentions his 'new home' FFS! Give it a rest.

If I was another owner I’d be asking questions why he’s getting so much preferential treatment. Surely all animals are equal?

I feel like he isn't the first horse to be given more space in a yard, before, however, we don't need reminding of it every time he gives an update about the horse!

For genuine and accurate updates I'd suggest following the exchanges and Unibet....

Unibet still one of the shortest for the Champion Hurdle. They must be confident he can be back to his best!

Well you can bet your life they’ll know a hell of alot more than you and me…

[Carnage at Taunton]

The only way we can ever be confident is seeing entries and then the performance imo.
I decided that years ago, and now with these relationships between trainers and bookies, that ain’t likely to change.
I will listen to trainers and quite enjoy doing that, but am real careful with what they say with regards to parting with money.

Yip, Didn't Unibet put Jeriko Du Reponet into something like 2/1 fav for the Supreme last season after his maiden win? Daft buggers

Agree. Not changed his luck so far. If I were him now I'd say zilch and just let CH do the talking. Punters are proper fed up with the whole thing now.

Absolutely this. I'd be asking questions for sure.
