You are right. Unless Cheltenian comes back and wins something significant next year, the rest of them look moderate as the RPR ratings last season suggested. The one that I am agrieved about is Cousin Khee who I noted having an easy race at Bangor recently but somehow I missed him when he strolled in at 5/1 next time. He could be a lot better than his rating.

Interestingly the form of the Punchestown Champion Bumper has been very very good. Granted Waheeb is injured and Lovethehigherlaw sadly died, but behind them 2 I think most of them have won since. It's ashame neither of the 1st have run since as imo they are/were exceptional animals.
Not sure whether more and more trainers/owners are taking the stance that the race (Chelts that is) takes to much out of a youngster? |

The best Bumper horses last season missed it, i.e. Samain, Lovethehigherlaw (RIP), Waaheb.
By the way the fourth from Cheltenham, Aupcharlie runs today at Leopardstown. |
