Cheltenham 2027

I always enjoy looking at the first show of the markets after the dust has settled

i have bet Final Demand gold cup at 16s e/w. think he may improve for the extra distance and wouldn't be the first brown advisory 2nd/3rd to go one better in the big one the following year. seems big.

Kopek Des Bordes 5/1 for the Champion Chase. has has all of 2 runs this year and looked the winner all over bar the slight mistake at the last. think this could be a crack 2 mile chaser and 5s fine by me.

anyone else completely mental and playing this early?

Oh yes:

El Cairos 20/1 Champion Hurdle. This bet was placed before the Festival and he's longer now but he has scope to improve and I would contend that not one Elliott horse ran to form this week, including his one winner.
Idaho Sun 50/1 Champion Hurdle. Form was franked in the Supreme, 50s just way too big.

Jasmin de Vaux 25/1 Stayers' - 2026 was a terrible terrible renewal and I want nothing to do with any of them going forward. JdV will do me.

Ile Etait Temps 50/1 Ryanair. I think Willie's main QM horses next year will be the front two in the Arkle and I think it's worth chancing IeT might go Ryanair, certainly at the price. Now how Festival form.

Mental you’s lot. Hard enough finding them on the day
However, i did look at the markets.

Gaelic Warrior 4/1 first showfor Gold Cup is absolutely scandalous 12 months out.

I must be being thick as f%*& as well. King Rasko Grey 8/1 for Champion Hurdle? I thought he looked a staying chaser tbh

Hendos got that Feel Gut for Supreme next year, hammered in from 25s already. I liked Quiryns run a lot on Wednesday
