Well Chief was different class today, i backed him thinking if he was close to beig fit he would win well with the weight he was getting. He beat Azertyuiop and was only beaten by the great Moscow in the champion chase a couple of years ago. 4 weeks til the festival, so the bounce factor shouldnt be too much of an issue, if it was 2weeks then they might have a problem.
I was really Impressed with Aran Concerto today, don't forget, Leading Run himself is a very nice horse, was the best bumper horse i have seen in a long time and is still a graded hurdler. The way Aran Concerto picked up really impressed me. which race do you think he will go for at the festival now?

I'd say they'll go for the 2m5 race with Aran unless the ground is very soft.
Well Chief certainly looks the best 2m winner at the moment. But so many doubts over the others. Voy Por fell so we dont know how he would have fared (though i dont think he was entirely happy yesterday), Foreman didnt run a lick. The irish 2milers are an odd bunch. I had high hopes for Sporazene but his jumping again let him down yesterday and wih Ashleybrook flying off, was always under pressure.
