I'm starting this early(ish) as most of the prep races will have been and gone now and it's only 5 weeks until the Festival.
Normally Bob and Big Al wade in with some good info and analysis and the rest of us profit, so this thread is a chance for anyone to post info, observations from what they have seen and heard so far, and anything they hear in the run up.
The Champion Hurdle is my favourite race of the year, as I've said many times before and for the record, out of all the protagonists, thus far, Solwhit is the one that interests me.
Feel free to add any tips etc...
