Mullins - 2nd and 3rd in the first and 1st and 3rd in the second. Looking like he might dominate again this week
Yeah he was, cos he hit the front sooner than the jockey wanted. But the 2nd was coming back and 2 more strides would've headed the winner !
So smooth over the hurdles, just makes them look like they arnt there...!! Just a class act full stop...
True and I can’t really remember the golden age of hurdling at the end of the 70s/early 80s. Definitely the best since istabraq though I think.
Kribensis was awesome and had the speed of a proper flat horse, would've loved to see them both run against each other here at their peak !
Interesting that last year CH won his Supreme a good 5 seconds faster than the Champion Hurdle. This year the two races were roughly the same time. Although, obviously, CH could have finished in a faster time. Still, not a bad performance by Marine Nationale, who would have finished a clear second in the Champion Hurdle on that performance
