Sure to be an opinion divider, but I still have faith in this fella to regain his Champion Hurdle crown. No excuses in the Champion last year, he was beaten fair and square, but hopefully with an injury free season and a proper campaign behind him, I think he is the one to beat at Cheltenham. Although no excuses, I don't think that was a reflection of his true ability, especially as Oscars Well was only a couple of lengths behind.
No one seems to have mentioned him throughout the summer. A lot on here (myself included) have talked up Grandouet and Zarkandar made an excellent reappearence, but despite being the current antepost favourite, you'd think the Fly wasn't even running.
The Morgiana tomorrow is a small but select line up, and great to see Go Native back in a Grade 1 hurdle, and lets hope he makes it over for the Christmas Hurdle and Champion. On known novice form the Fly should have him covered, but whoever wins tomorrow will put down a serious marker for the Champion Hurdle imo.
He's still clear on the ratings at 173, but he'll be 9 for the next Champion, so this may be his last chance for glory, and I for one hopes he takes it.

Inconclusive after that race.
A real shame Go Native tipped up at the last because it would have been a great finish.
Based on that run, both of them have an excellent chance if both staying fit imo.

Yep no point guessing what might have happened, just delighted to see Go Native back and well.
