Harry, Ive been in and out of the loop here and should really know more about the jumps game than I do, but I have been thoroughly impressed with Hurricane Fly. He showed some lethal turn of foot the last day at Leopardstown, he put daylight between him and his rivals after the last hurdle which Ive seldom seen before. I was under the impression that he would go for the Supreme Novices and Cousin Vinny or Mikael D'Haguenet would go for the Ballymore / 3miler.. One worry for me with Hurricane FLy is that in his two runs this winter, they have been run at a crawl and he could yet be swept off his feet when it comes to Cheltenham..


Anyway, I quite like our novive hurdlers this year and am struggling to find out what happened to last years novices as our Novice chasers dont look anything too special just yet.

He'll still struggle at the top level, in my honest opinion. I could be wrong, but I've never been a huge fan of these sorts of horses.
