    Just watching a fairly high quality summer handicap at Ffos Las on Friday really whet the appetite for the Jumps season ahead of us.
    Still nearly two months until Charlie Hall day at Weatherby but Im pretty fed up with the flat at this stage. Only the Breeders Cup holds any interest to me now.

    So whats everyone looking forward to the season coming?
    I think the novice chasers looks red hot this year with Captain Cee Bee and Crack Away Jack notable entries.
    Will anyone catch Kauto? Cooldine can give him something to think about IMHO.

    I agree, the flat goes from March to November whereas the jumps seem to come and go so quickly..

    I,m also looking forward to the good irish horses re-appearing, dunquib, notre pere, hurricane fly, quevega, Mikael Dhaguenet, so much to be optimistic about and can big Zeb (unlucky at punchestown) challange what I thought was an unbeatable master minded.

    He wasn't unlucky, he jut wasn't good enough. The name of the game is jumping and he didn't, not the first time either he hasn't jumped fluently.

    I can't see how you can mistake luck for not not being good enough.

    I'm looking forward to the champion hurdle most. I think Solwhit can win it at Cheltenham.
