    Did we just see next year's Champion Hurdle winner in Our Conor? Most impressive winner of the Triumph Hurdle I've ever seen!

    Hey Joe. How come you went for Rolling Star. Wasn't it you raving about Our Connor a while back?

    Even with 2 or 3 to jump you wouldn't have called that sort of distance.

    Absolutely opened up before and during going up the hill.

    That was a bit unexpected to say the least.

    I wouldn't be in a rush to back him for the Champion Hurdle. Wouldn't surprise me if he were to be in a novice chase at Cheltenham next year.

    I was always sure Our Conor was the one to beat, but after yesterdays white out I was even MORE nervous than your virgin, ginger <ok>

    My two for the AB both got withdrawn, and now I can't see At Fishers Cross losing at all. Especially now the rain has arrived. Gone large to get back some of earlier losses!
