Champion Hurdle Hopes

if you cannot find the positives in the run of Saint Roi, you may be as well turning the telly over

That was a shocking ride.

Winner needs headgear, head carriage has always been horrible, don't think he was tired then at all, just pulled himself up.

and the pundits say f uck all

Sounds like Gary O'Brien had a mortgage job on Saint Roi

Does this race put question marks over Shishkin as well ? Maybe his win in Supreme wasn’t as good as we thought ?
Don’t think any of those in the Morgana win in March.

There's too much of an over reaction to the perceived hard luck story around Saint Roi, the winner tried to pull himself up from the last and the line but was still too good, if they can get the right sort of headgear on him and get him to run right to the line then he could still be a good value bet for March.

He was good value for his win all things considered but the markets might not reflect it as it seems that he's lost a lot of the support he had going into this season.

Champion Hurdle not quite horses like  Beacon Light , Dramatist and Birds' Nest would have thrashed this flat bred rubbish than can't go a yard on proper jumping ground.
