Hurricane Fly (backed pre Darlans demise) with a big saver on money back special Zarkander
All make or break the week for me, have e/w bets on Defy Logic, Pique Sous and Son of Flicka as well as a few small win bets on AupCharlie, Ballycasey, Sam Winner, Reve De Sivola and Overturn.Originally posted by bohsman View PostOur Conor now my biggest bet of the year. Chartreux and either BobsWorth or SDC winning would also go a long way towards getting me out of it

From Horse Racing Ireland
'Our Conor put up a scintillating display to run away with the JCB Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham.
Never out of the first two in running, Dessie Hughes' youngster stretched his 100% record over jumps to four with an emphatic success.
The 4-1 shot, ridden by Bryan Cooper, bounded clear from the second-last to win unchallenged by 15 lengths from Far West, with Sametegal a further two and a quarter lengths away in third.
Hughes, who was responsible for dual Champion Hurdle hero Hardy Eustace, said: "Everything went well and he jumped brilliant - he's a real one isn't he? I couldn't expect a performance like that. He was on the bit all the way, he was loving it.
"We've had no problems with him whatsoever. He eats and sleeps and any ground is fine for him. He has shown us a lot since his last run in Leopardstown - we thought he'd improved every day. He is certainly a Champion Hurdle horse. He stays, he has foot and he jumps.
"The Champion Hurdle is all about jumping and he certainly does that. Hardy Eustace was a brilliant jumper and so is this lad, but he's totally different to Hardy. We schooled him over hurdles as a two-year-old and he was absolutely fantastic, so we always looked forward to him going jumping. I'm sure he'll go to Punchestown next."
Cooper said: "I've never had a feeling like that before in my life, I was there a mile too soon. I sat for as long as I could but nothing could come with me. We popped the last and then he just idled up the straight, he has some ability.
"I knew we had the race won at the last so I sat back and just let him fiddle. He's got such a good cruising speed. I was glad the rain came as all his form was on heavy."

I think Nicholls will get his first here on trickster with the same type of thought process. Stuck my PP 20 freebet on it anyway because of their downtime earlier.
