Champion Bumper ‘25

[Eggs]

….Spinningayarn into 25-1 (from 50-1) CB with 365 after getting back up to win that bumper.

JPs looked like he ducked the battle, Robcours came back for more. Think the front 3 are nice enough but not ones I'd particularly be keen on following next year over hurdles.

I actually think Barry Connells worth marking up there, providing he settles next time out

Was gassy for the majority of that race and I expected him to fold coming up the hill

Can't take to Connell so I rightly or wrongly don't take to his horses either. I think he should have won there from his position 100yds out. He'll win next time out though.

I’d say those first three might reappear at Punchestown but won’t be going anywhere near the Cheltenham.

Elliott said "He's a nice horse and he's going to come on plenty from that. I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up going for a Cheltenham bumper.

"He's definitely going to stay down the bumper route, there's a lot of improvement in him.

"He could definitely (go out in trip in time)."

I don't think he'd have the pace, but showed a good attitude today.

Yeah I like the attitude. It was the same with Skylight Hustle the other day too. Bit of experience this season and then mid to staying hurdles next season.

….Windbeneathmywings boosted 10-1 with 365 (bits of 8-1 elsewhere).

Post it in here although I don't think the winner will come here but the Gowran bumper for 4yos tomorrow has a nicely bred Gigginstown horse, bought for 160k as a store. By Doctor Dino and there were 3 Gigginstown horses entered in this at entries by Doctor Dino from memory, including the half to BDA, Mighty Potter etc. Seem to be buying more horses that you'd expect to have a fair bit of speed from than they used to buy in the past.

Be interesting how he gets on. The Queally horse is well related (the half sister beat Sortudo at Xmas and 2nd to Amen Kate first time up) as well.

Silly Mongoose wins all, I hope


Been some decent winners of tomorrows bumper as well ... not that, that has any actual impact on anything you've said .... but Blue Sari and Perceval Legallois

Getabird and Black Hercules if you go back further.

The others they entered were nicely bred as well - hope he runs well and the others are good so Elliott has some ammo for next year with his usual PTP recruits.

Nice, the ATR card didn't show that

Irishracing.com?


and not checked properly but Reckless not a festival option?

Yeah Irishracing gives you a long list of previous winners.

Unusual for them to send a 4yo and even more unusual for a 4yo winner. Haven't looked but can only think of Cue Card winning as a 4yo.

I'm not actually sure what Doctor Dinos record is with bumper horses. Just found it interesting Gigginstown had bought a few of them.

Theflyingking declared for Fairyhouse on Saturday alongside a well bred half brother to Colreevy & Three Stripe Life for WPM.

40/1 with B365 won’t last too long about him.

With the going currently soft at Fairyhouse & more rain due in the next 24hrs conditions should be more up TFK’s street than they were at Down Royal.

Just backed Fillyoureye this morning.

Like his pedigree.

Gigginstown are diversifying more each year I'd say. In the old days they just wanted staying chasers but now they're buying up stores and recruiting from France and getting sharper type too. This one today should be sharp as Doctor Dino gets early types and the dam line is all flat bred.
