I get your drift. I think there could be a very, very slim chance Altior could go Champion Hurdle or Ryanair or Gold Cup; If so, he'll be more than 4/6 for any of them - that's my understanding. But, of the two 4/6 for Altior who is almost a certainty to run in the Champion Chase is good value considering he's only 4/9 for this race.

What the fack sort of drivel are you talking ??
Altior going for the Champion Hurdle, Ryanair or Gold Cup. FFS stepping up from 2m to 3m 2 1/2f, just randomly going back over hurdles or going for the bloody Ryanair. My god. |

![]() Could just imagine Henderson (via Unibet on Tw@tter obvs) announcing on the Sunday prior to the festival that Brain Power was going to bring his A game to the Champion Chase and Altior would be diverted to the Ryanair. ![]() Imp123 would lead the meltdown on here... Well done, Govan - excellent spot irrespective of any outcome. |

I believe Gilgamboa is injured and a doubt for the Festival.

To elaborate on that, just remembered it was a Mark Howard update...
Gilgamboa has been hit with a setback and it will be a race against time to get him fit for the spring festivals. |

Stand and Fight will win that Foxhunters anyhow. Save the money on Gilgamboa and go in large

The penny has dropped with Hill's. Altior now 2/5.

Spot on Impossible123.
I’ve heard Altior could even skip Cheltenham for a crack at the Grand National before a tilt at the Greyhound Derby. |
By:
Love to see him in the Gold Cup

By:
Should run Altior on the Tuesday in the Champion Hurdle and Friday in the Gold Cup. He'd be favourite for both.

Altior: Champion Hurdle (tues); Champion Chase (weds); Gold Cup (fri). A full house of victories in one Festival and one week.

Midlands National Saturday ( providing he gets a good nights sleep on Friday of course)
