No, but accidents excepted, both horses will almost certainly run. Hopefully get bigger prices now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albertz57 2 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 For those who like a speculative punt Blizzard of Oz is reported to be Willie Mullins main hope for the Champion Bumper at the festival. Currently a 25/1 shot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer93 15,057 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 For last year's festival I had god knows how many ante post bets with my free £5 bet from sky, by the time the festival started I think I only had 3 or 4 bets actually running because of injuries or horses being pulled from one race to run in another RFC55 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Champion Bumper is also a bit of a lottery. And in the handicaps there's not much point betting on a horse unless you know it will definitely get in the race. But there are 28 races in all, so there are still plenty of opportunities to have an ante post bet. hammer93 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
