National Hunt Horse To Follow

Fiddlerontheroof

Was super impressed by his hurdle debut 2nd at Chepstow last week. Loved the way he breezed into the lead 2 out after running green when the pace quickened earlier as he is a big unit, but was run down on the run in by the highly rated Favourite

Be very surprised if this 5 year old does not win nice races this campaign.

 

Runs tomorrow at Wincanton [12.40]

Butte Montana

Finished 2nd in a hot bumper race at Cheltenham last week, though connections were disappointed he did not win as Fergal O'Brien thinks he is a very nice horse.

But the horse who beat him is also well regarded by his top connections, and I though Butte did well to get 2nd as looked the first beat 3 furlongs out. Also in a head to head smash up between Barry Geraghty & Paddy Brennan you would not want your mortgage on PB!

Would like to see young star Connor Brace ride this horse in the future as he has done a lot of the homework on him

Stables last 4 bumper runners have Won, and the “word” still is that the above horse is still the best of them!

Very likeable horse trained by Amy Murphy

Heartbreaking to see him chinned on the line last week at Newbury, but personally I think he needs stepping up to 3 miles.

So watch out if that happens

Told it could happen over Xmas

Thought he ran a nice debut at Newcastle today over the straight mile.

Could not really get into a rhythm despite being strong in the market, and after being almost last 2 furlongs out ran on under a hands and heels ride to finish a never nearer 5th

Interestingly just past the post was getting into top gear and almost finished alongside the winner, suggesting a step up in trip will benefit

Would be great to see the likeable Peter Chapple-Hyam have another decent flat horse, and I do like his filly: Bharani Star

Though failing to trouble the judge on both runs as a 2 year old, they were at top tracks and the horse was far from disgraced
