The 2025 Long Walk Hurdle

Will be very interested in this market. Would expect Inpose Toi and Strong Leader to be the top two but Crambo might be a nice price - I have no idea why he was in the Ascot Hurdle last time over 2 and a half and the way he was positioned in the race suggested to me he was just there to blow the cobwebs away. Strong Leader is best on a flat lh track, Nemean Lion isn't a 3 miler, Potters Charm is trained by a bellend - could be a juicy market.
 
If Doddiethegreat (14/1) can put a clean round of jumping together, he won’t be far away. The horse has a knack of getting hampered or letting his hind legs into the hurdle. His form over his last five runs is ultra-consistent, though. It’s a very weak, shallow race and he hasn’t much to find with the top of the market.
 
Love putting these Big-Race threads up at an ante-post stage, but no bet for me until I see the final declarations on Thursday. #justbackfuckingrunners
