Death of Our Conor, hampering of The New One, good ground and the pace of the race exposing Flys age, MTOY still way too keen and Jezki wins. Not the race we were all hoping for sadlyYes but no one wants to go up front because they're a target to late finishers, I doubt that even BG would've made that call so early during the race. They could've forced Faugheen in making mistakes by taking him on earlier but that would've playedhttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30372219/the-champion-hurdle?post_id=543981457#543981457Yes but no one wants to go up front because they're a target to late finishers, I doubt that even BG would've made that call so early during the race.

It's no even clear on the blog what £10 relates to but around December time you claimed to be up 112 points, so £10 per point. It's very odds to put up stakes yet record the total in Points profit.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30372219/the-champion-hurdle?post_id=543974855#543974855So what do the stakes mean your put up CV?
