Gold Cup and Champion hurdle. Which price will shrink first?

Not sure that Darlan is better than Grandouet for the CH though the latter has to prove his well being after injury.
I'm firmly in the SDS camp for the Gold Cup at this stage. Young buck with great track form, top trainer and a very progressive profile. |

I can't have the front three in the Champion Hurdle betting, only see Cinders and Ashes as a danger. In the Gold Cup, worried about Flemenstar.

both in a double.
Hendo appears to be shuffling the deck to fit in Darlan. Grandouet looked the intended runner at Newcastle but now goes to Cheltenham. Sir des Champs just looks good...extra 5f...give it the benefit of the doubt. |

Grandouet was never really going to NewcaSTLE

Agree with Howdi. Grandouet first run was always planned for the International at Cheltenham which he won last year when he trounced Overturn, Brampour, Menorah and Sanctuaire. This 'orse is the real deal if he stays sound and contrary to below view I reckon Darlan is going to Newcastle because Grandouet was always planned to be at Cheltenham. All about opinions. And yes I have an AP bet on G for CH.

Anyone else seen Mullin's quote after the race today? Considering dropping SDC back to 2m next time out to give him more jumping practice, would be a very strange decision

BB, I recall he did this with Cooldine during his novice year. Teaches a 3 miler to jump quicker in preparation for a fast run festival 3 mile plus race he believes.
