    Philip fenton has admitted in an interview on atr a few weeks back that he doesnt travel well can get veryworked up b4 a race.
    he said last year and I quote "we brought him straight from the stable where we were keeping him through the parade ring and out to the course, IF we are ALLOWED to do the same this year i dont see a problem"

    now yes i do agree dunguib looks like a cert but after seeing that interview ( a friend of mine recorded it, trying to find a link) it hasnt instilled confidence in me

    Well, he is a box walker so that would explain the nerves. He might be evens or odds against on the day anyway.

    I was off the opinion that he will start odds on, i dont think so anymore, 6/5 or 11/10 is my guess on the S.P

    He is a boxwalker and was, according to sources, very lit up last year. Didn't stop him put in one of the great Chelt performances. Looked at the Cheltenham bumper again on Wed, its frightening the horses he destroyed that day.

    He pulled the jockeys arms out almost the whole way round but was still able to cruise to the front and bound on up the hill. Of course he'll also have the hurdles to content with this time also!

    OP even if he has to pull the horse box around behind him he will still win this without breaking sweat, buying money is what it is!!

    When he comes to the head of the feild as they turn in with o'connell looking around and back between he's legs the roar from the crowd will make the hairs on your neck stand and we will all remember why its the greatest show on earth ;-)

    Do you know, i've never been so nervous about a race even though I know he is a certainty, every night I look at my 9/4 docket and have a little chuckle but then the heart starts to skip a beat and the doubts start to creep in, but then i just play the recording of last years bumper and the chuckling starts again!!

    so obv you backed him at 9/4,
    Will you consider coverin some of your bet and lay him on the day?

    No I normally would lay off some on betfair but not this one, as confident now as ever.

    Surely Fenton and connections must now be giving serious consideration to running in the Champion hurdle , with a cloud hanging over Solwhit and Sublimity out , plus plenty of the leading contenders have questions to answer on their recent form .
