To write off Hurricane Fly is foolish.  I think he is so versatile, anything that is thrown his way he will be able to deal with.  He has proved he has an electric turn of foot, has got stamina over 2m4f and has won on Soft, Heavy and Good.

Below is a quote from Willie Mullins in 2009 saying he is the best hurdler he has ever trained and that is good enough for me.  I know Willie has said that since because he was on ATR not long ago saying it.

"We'll take it race by race with him but there's no doubt that he's the best hurdler I've ever had"

I know he has missed two festivals but he is still has time on his side, so Willie has been very cautious with him.  Binocular is a very good horse as well but is too hit and miss for me, and if Hurricane Fly turns up safe and sound he will give Binocular the hardest race he has ever  had.  Will he win?  I don't know, but to completely write him off is ridiculous.

just dont think his form is blinding

beat luska lad cosily last time by 3 lengths on the heavy
time before he beat mourad 5 lenghths on the soft
end of last season he won the punchestown grade 1 as a fresh horse beating solwhit who had a full campaign and the county hurdle winner, 2 lengths

his novice season he had nice form. the pick of which was when beating a below par go native

the horse is decent but cant see him beating bino or peddlers cross

i dont think HF is a bad horse.... BUT: i do think mourad is a 3 miler, i dont think solwhit is a 2 miler, i dont think luska lad is a top class 2 miler... not champion hurdle winner for me
