I posted that i thought this horse had a squeak ew for the champion hurdle and got laughed at in the main section of the forum what do you guys on here think, backed it at 380-1 and sold it at 150-1 and with perhaps only 10 runners going to post it surely cant be ruled out especially as such a lightly raced horse and with the ground to suit he surely is no way a total rag and could surprise a few and especially with only 10 runners.

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.

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.
