We have 3 Munir owned UK horses, Peace and Co, Bristol De Mai and Top Notch and Kalkir from Ireland with Chartbreaker yet to run from the Nichols yard a possible addition has the making of a possible vintage year for juveniles. I expect Daryl Jacob to ride Bristol De Mai regardless of whether he has 1st choice of the Henderson Munir horses and given softish ground at the Festival he would be the selection. However on goodish ground (likely) come March I am clueless which horse would be superior. However the horses highlighted above jump low and fast and the winner could be easily be a top contender for the Champion Hurdle 2016. Faugheen looks a chaser while Jezki and The New One are useful they do not compare to recent greats regardless of the result.

Interesting thoughts. My tuppence worth is that Faugheen is as good as he threatens to be and bar injury will prove himself extra special and will stay over hurdles. If given the choice I think Jacob would want to be on the clear favourite Peace And Co. Of course things can change between now and then.
Fix, Agreed on this being potentially vintage year for juveniles, which naturally will filter into 2016 and 2017 Champion Hurdle, giving FAUGHEEN the potential to prove his greatness.
Love TOP NOTCH's performance, much prefer this battling assertion of quality to the canter home form of Peace and Co - as it gives me confidence that the Cheltenham Hill, can be a positive differentiator TOP NOTCH.
A game of opinions, until the flag goes up, everyone has the potential to be right until then.

It's great to see a horse willing to put his head down and battle. Would you want to have to see it in a race like that though? Could be one for the Fred Winter if his rating isn't too high I'd imagine the Chepstow winner may accompany Peace And Co to the Triumph if all goes well between now and then.
peace and co has won it already and dont dare argue

Look a bit better than the last bumper crop in '09 - zaynar, walkon, starluck, etc
Won't take much to top their subsequent achievements anyway
