I was very impressed with the 14-runner Naas Bumper yesterday evening. Both Gigginstown horses dominated the betting, travelled well and dominated the finish.

On the visuals of that race, I have TOMBSTONE as the best bumper horse to date this season.

However Gordon Elliott will need to overcome the owners, Gigginstown's reluctance to have a runner in the Cheltenham Bumper, in the recent past.

Any views, or thoughts, on whether Gigginstown may allow a runner or two in the race this year?

Don't see why they would change their strategy.

They have a plethora of really nice young hurdlers and chasers so missing the festival Bumper clearly isn't harming them, and may be benefiting them.

They've missed it with a lot of classy horses in the past so don't see why they would change..Samain, Don Cossack etc.

irrespective of who owns Tombstone, the horse cannot run in the festival bumper. hope that helps.

Thanks all, I will put tracker on TOMBSTONE and see where he turns up next instead of Chelters.
