CLERKS CHOICE

Absolutely no chance im afraid not in a champion hurdle this hot!!

I like the horse and if the word soft not in ground description he might beat more than beats him, but we know how they like to  have g/s ground 1st day.

I was under the impression that he was going straight for the Aintree Hurdle.

got a lot of time for him on fast ground keep the faith

I think you're spot-on MP Jnr and I'll be winning a few bob or several if there's a shock. I've got plenty of free bets on him so he owes me nothing. If however, he's travelling as nicely (as I'm anticipating) turning into the straight, then I can make a good few quid out of him I/R. Outsiders win EVERY day (and at EVERY Festival) and if someone's stupid enough to ridicule a selection such as this (that's not finished improving) I hope he will pay! FWIW, he travelled as well as anything in the Bula, got there a bit too soon and the faster the ground at Cheltenham, the better for him as it'll stop some of the more fancied horses. He's at three figure odds and is also a tasty price for the frame. Don't say you weren't warned! I'm sure he'll run his race but whether he's up to this task is another matter, but he must run here as the other option would be giving a lot of weight away in the County Hurdle.
