I went that day with a mate who said you should back the one you fancy for the Supreme for next years Champion Hurdle. That was Cinders and Ashes but I didn't do it. The morning of the Supreme he 100/1 for this years Champion!

****e advice that George - I would've been on Tetlami <laugh> ;)
 
<rofl> so you don't fancy the 66s about Tetlami for the CH!?! <laugh> Anyway that's what I said. The supreme is one of the hardest races to call but I think the thinking is that as long as you can get home in first 3 you can trade out at a profit. That said I'm not one to do that and although I'd love to be on Cinders at 100s he's not my first idea of the winner of the CH anyway. I'd love it if he did win because of the win he gave me but it's a competitive looking heat. Very impressive in the Supreme but plenty to prove that he can mix it in the open category.
 
C&A is a difficult one George - definitely doesn't have that wow factor but he is a very solid horse and clearly loved it round Cheltenham. But I think the Supreme novices was a weak event and I wouldn't be rushing to back any of them for the CH.
 
Yep <ok> though Maguire said C&A hit the front too soon and idled out front which makes the win more impressive. If any can from the race he can though reading Hendo's comments it seems like he thinks Darlan has as good a chance as any in his yard.

Still think Darlan is a bit of a bridle horse mate - don't think he has the guts and determination to win a CH. Might come round the bend travelling best of all but he won't get up the hill best of all <ok>
 
<laugh> as I say I win when I want. I will win the league again tmz ;)

<laugh> get the wine doon ya and a crate of lager
 
Have to agree with GGW - 12/1 is not my idea of a good price.

a) Injury worries
b) Still think he'd be held by Zarkandar, and I don't particularly think that one would be top of my list either.
