The Bumper

avoid this race, all the hype every year is bullsh*t..

Persian Snow - monster

Horse called Twentyfourcarat from the Ian Williams yard, only had 1 run which was a bumper at Ascot which he beat Ericht and made all despite running green majority of the race, Stable booked Timmy Murphy on that occasion, only ride for the stable all season so i think they knew they had a decent horse on there hands.

He is entered in a listed bumper at Newbury this saturday so we will see how good he is, if he impresses he will surely head to Cheltenham, i been quoted 20/1

bloody timmy murphy won that race really he knicked a it at the start. Ericht won easy since and the 3rd ran an ok race aadainst knight pass.

yeh Murphy did well...but point i was making is the horse was making its debut whereas Ericht already had a run and he still responded well under pressure which is a good sign for a horse

Ericht hadnt already had a run. As with the Invisible Man thread, shoddy, very shoddy.

I'm on Knight Pass at 16 and still very happy with that.

Impressive both runs, yet still looked like he had lots of improvement in him.

i really fancy shuil royale. won well during the week.

havent seen much from ireland yet to worry me out of backing knight pass or persian snow...but can the english win it 2 years running.?

im favouring knight pass atm

ive sin 4 nice horse in ire mullin's lovethehigherlaw (128), weld's waaheb(118(, hanlon's star neuville(126) and Murphy's raise the beat(130)

bt mullins lovethehigherlaw is not cuming over (aparently) along with weld;s.

ive had small bet on mullins cuz it was so impressive and backd raise the beat along with knight pass and persian snow

Star Neuville.

Some decent prospects entered at Newbury on Saturday including Persian Snow

hot bumper whoever wins it wll be fav for the bumper at cheltenham really looing forward to seeing this monster persian snow.hit the headlines is a proper horse too

i like shuil royale too

DUNGUIB

I see Harry Redknapp has bought Bygones In Brid for a few squid...Persian Snow might have his work cut out.

Nothing apart from Waaheb has made me go wow but he ain't running. Don't think it looks a strong bumper this year. Persian Snow looks the best option at the moment. Solid debut win.

Elegant Concorde?

What is the news on the wonderfully-named Roger Beantown. Bought by the Wylies after winning at Thurles in November. Runner-up that day, Popcorn of Mullins, runs today in the 3.15 at Punch in a maiden hurdle.

i notice it has been entered in hrd VIPER. so not sure about the bumper.

im bking popcorn 2day!

Bold Optimist out.

Which race mattock? Nothing on his RP entries page.

it was a few weeks bk!

down....is that definite?

Yep, trainer said so on atr 10mins ago, small set back, put him away for hurdles next year.

Cheers mate......

KEYS would surely have a great chance getting a 7lb allowance??

Horrible race to try and solve; one for the Irish and their whispers!!

Is Joseph O'brien still going to ride one in the bumper? Would be interested to know what he's riding. Ballydoyle could have an able jock on for once.
