    This is no criticism of the horse but what the actual **** Twister is doing sticking THE NEW ONE in to the Champion again is such a waste, rather than try him over 3m in a World Hurdle? How many times must that poor horse get smashed by the Irish before Nige learns <rofl> The World Hurdle is so open if he was yours wouldn't you try the 3m, all he does is stay....

    More prizemoney in the Champion Hurdle (for the places) and maybe not convinced the horse will stay 3 miles? Here the prizemoney comparison from 2016:

    He's looking at his usual 5th or 6th in the Champion though, unless it's an absolute quagmire? I mean he's beaten the 140 rated Clyne a length today ( albeit under a penalty) but even that's County Hurdle form not Champion <doh>

    I could see him placing in a Stayers Hurdle, as I've always said staminas his thing, he's always been under the pump between 3 and 2 out in a Champion and today's race confirmed it again. Hard ridden to beat those and Nige wants to go Champion, crazy stuff <laugh> Young STD seems to have acquired the brains in the family, he seems to want to go up in trip.

    But hey he's not my horse,I don't pay his fees, he can get stuffed in a Champion as often as he likes <laugh>

    This is brilliant from NTD. I wonder what he was thinking when Bristol Du Mai was coming to the last.

    Going to follow Mick Easterby at Newcastle tonight for an interest, he only has the 3 out so will go for doubles and trebles. He was in decent form a few weeks ago so hopefully due a few winners.

    Agreed on TNO- he's slower these days and just stay and tries like a warrior. Has to be 3m.

    TNO is never a 3 miler, 2m2 on a stiff track is probably his ideal trip.

    Should run in the Champion Hurdle and Aintree Hurdle as usual, hes not as good as he used to be but should get prizemoney in this years champion.
