Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
JP has nothing else for the QMCC. If Great Field is ready, he's a cert to run.
McManus the only owner that will tell Mullins what the plan is, rather than the other way around!
Hopefully.

Alas the bonus tickets with Annual Membership are not valid for Festival Weekend.
However still looking forward to meeting all who will be attending; usual meet up spot is parade ring near the horse exit.
Thanks Eddie and no worries. Any advice on travel from the airport to the course?
Take an Aircoach, Ben. They serve both airport terminals and bring you to within a 10 minute walk of the turnstiles

What a trio.
The 2005 Champion Hurdle contained Hardy Eustace, Brave Inca, Harchibald, Accordion Etoile, Macs Joy, Rooster Booster, Back In Front and Intersky Falcon.
It makes you lament the paucity of top class 2 mile hurdlers these days. Will we ever see such depth again?
Maybe not if all the young horses are off to Japan and AustraliaOriginally Posted by TheBear

Awaiting the decs with dribbly chops like a daft Bull Mastiff with his face up the window awaiting his masters return.

Man who catch fly with chopstick .... accomplish anything.
McManus's racing manager Frank Berry said: "The plan is for Defi Du Seuil to run at Leopardstown providing he scopes right. It will be good to get him back on track and to see where he slots in.
"Barry Geraghty will be riding Buveur D'Air at Sandown. It isn't yet written in stone who will be on Defi Du Seuil."

Faugheen will be some unknown quantity come March without a run here

The older I get the better I was.
Any word on Coney Island?
Horse is odds against which stinks to the high heavens if he's 100%.
What tests? The same 2 tests every horse in the race will have before running?........this is Fake News
The news is the horse is drifting because no one trust the pointy nosed leprechaun or they are at it
Formely Fist of Fury
Just checked the card for Saturday. It will be a long and tortuous day waiting through that muck before we get to THAT Bumper.

And that small head knew that Impaire Et Passe would win the Champion Hurdle."
