| After watching today, i have taken 11.5 on Celestial Halo for the Champion. This is bigger than last years SP when it was beaten a nk by Punjabi. Punjabi had a look today & wasnt put in the race at the end & will be better for the run. In a big field, i doubt if Khyber Kim could beat Celestial Halo next time. At the moment i think Zaynar is too short at 6.0 & happy to take the price on CH. The 1st 3 home last year could again be in the 1st 3 or 4 in this seasons race.

| Guys, did Alan King say what route is Medermit going after this race? I just missed his interview and only heard what he said about Shalone's chances in the last.

| Quote on Alan King Website MEDERMIT AIMING FOR CHAMPION We have already won a Champion Hurdle with Katchit, and Medermit is heading down that road following his creditable third to Khyber Kim and Celestial Halo in the Boylesports International at Cheltenham on Saturday. Alan had been unsure as to whether to persevere down the Champion route or send Medermit novice chasing and hope that he was good enough to go for the Arkle, but, having consulted with the owners, everyone is in agreement to stick to hurdling for this season. He said: ”We were only three lengths off Celestial Halo, so we are not far behind the principals, and if we can find a bit of improvement we might well be in the mix come March. ”We considered our options, and if we went chasing we would only be able to fit in one race, two maximum, before the Arkle, and I would much rather have a full season when we did switch to fences. ”Medermit is best fresh, so we could well give him a break and go straight to Cheltenham. If he did have a prep-race, it would probably be at Sandown in early February.” Last edited by billvernon; 14-12-2009 at 13:45. |

| Regarding this last race I think the winner of the Champion was in here.Punjabi was tanking along most of the race and looked to have a good chanceof winning - but as henderson said it was stuffy and needed the run which was proven right - I still think Celestial Halo ran well he conceded 4 lbs to the winner along with Punjabi - He was going ok but slightly sprawled at the last which definetly affected his momentum - also this will not be the course they will run on at Cheltenham - Celestial and Punjabi look good for a place and a shout at winning in my book.

| I watched the Champion Hurdle from last year and can say that both Muirhead and Crack Away Jack were gaining on the front three up the hill. Supreme and Champion both clocked the exact same time. Now in my eyes this means the Supreme is a very strong form. Go Native beat Binocular and Solwhit. Medermit fell short against Celestial and Khyber, but King is having problems, so the one that's sure to improve is exactly him and that's why he remains over hurdles. Bearing in mind the way Somersby put Crack Away Jack in his place proves the fact that the Supreme is strong form. CAJ has probably gained more than 5L up the hill and with a furlong more he would have probably been very close to winning. So judging the form on Somersby's beating of Jack, those to take out are Medermit and Go Native. Medermit was unlucky to bump into Cousin Vinny after the last jump and would have won the Supreme. And when Alan King's stable steps up few gears, this is the horse I want to be on, because he always has them ready 101% and improved for the festival. He looked inferior on form and went off 14/1 last year, but flew up the hill to be an unlucky loser. He can certainly reverse form with Go Native and at 40/1 while Go Native is 12/1, he is definite value. Being within 3lgts yesterday, he can certainly be in the mix of things come March. If he can win it is debatable, but 40/1 is way too big. If you want value, there it is for you. The two most likely to win the Champion for me are Zaynar and Hurricane Fly. The first has done nothing wrong and keeps improving. I just doubt his attitude sometimes. He almost threw it away last year in the Triumph when wondering around. Tends to do this at few of the jumps and they'll probably be applying the cheekpieces again. Who has the best chance will probably depend on who Barry Gerraghty choeses to ride between Punjabi and Zaynar. From the last season trio I think Punjabi will confirm the form with the other two. Certainly at 14s he is the bet over Binocular at 6s. Zaynar's lazyness is a concern for a Champion Hurdle to me and 5s is low enough. He won't have to worry just about Walkon here. He will be surronded by a field of top class animals and going back to my thoughts on the Supreme form, just watch the way Hurricane Fly beat Go Native at Punchestown and decide on your behalf to oppose him, but that's not a bad form and being beaten 3L by Solwhit and Muirhead, when trainer saying the horse is far from fit, should mean the most improvement is to come from him with already proven class what he can do when he is 100% ready. Khyber Kim is an enigma, and the value is gone there. He could well be an improver, but Paddy Brennan didn't use his whip this weekend and I don't think the horse fancies it. Can't see him winning a champion hurdle not being whiped. Binocular is under a big cloud and that price at the moment is a joke. Most likely winner Hurricane Fly and e/w value Medermit.

| Well dont have many ante post best but it seems to be something far more important and competitive in the jump scene than the flat and I have had a couple recently and one has to be Dunguib at 7/4 (will hill) for the Supreme novices they keep saying they will stay down the novices route and if he lines up he is bound to by odds on!

| Few might disagree with me here, but I think the first three from last year may not even make the places this term. Khyber Kim can certainly uphold form with Celestial Halo (Punjabi and Binocular too). Medermit with Alan King on fire and certain improvement (a big if there). Go Native doesn't find much off the bridle, but Paul Carberry will get him covered and produce him late like a 5f flat sprinter And most of all Zaynar and Hurricane Fly. Most likekly top three are Khyber Kim, Zaynar and Hurricane Fly. That's with Dunguib not taking part ![]()
