    Underpriced @ 5/1 fav with P P for this race.Way too skinny imho.Anybody think there's any value in that price ?.

    Yes and No...He's taken really well to hurdles and come March we could be saying that 5-1 was a gift...however, he definitely still has a bit to prove and I would definitely like to have seen him take on some better opponents. It's not shaping up to be a great Triumph Hurdle though to be honest.

    There was a major gamble on him the day of the race he won, for that race and the triumph hurdle.

    There was plenty of support for him a few weeks before he ever jumped a hurdle, I remember reading somewhere that Anthony Daly was a part owner and had put a fairly substantial bet on him for the Triumph.

    The concern with backing him for Cheltenham is that he is unproven on good ground, all of his better performances on the flat were in very testing conditions, so for me 5/1 ante post is no value at all, he is unlikely to be a whole lot shorter come the day of the race.

    I heard noend has being schooling very well and is on target for the triumph hurdle.Its going to have one run before cheltenham.And has a great e.w chance if it runs in cheltenham.
