Champion Bumper 2025: Where are they now?
Thu 27th Nov
Jody Townend keeps up family tradition with first Festival winner
There was a first winner at the Cheltenham Festival for Jody Townend when Willie Mullins enjoyed a record-extending 14th victory in the Weatherbys Champion Bumper with Bambino Fever. Wed 12th Mar
Mullins set for further success on Day 2 at the Festival
Willie Mullins saddled two winners on the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival and the record-breaking trainer has plenty of good chances of adding to that tally this afternoon. Wed 12th Mar
Impressive Gameofinches makes it a treble for Mullins
Gameofinches put himself firmly in the Cheltenham Bumper picture with a very taking debut win at Punchestown. Thu 20th Feb
After race at Punchestown Thu, 20th Feb, 2025 (1st)
He did what I was hoping he could do. His homework has been nice, he showed on the track what he had been showing me at home. I was very happy with the outcome and I’d imagine, if he recovers nicely from that race, he’ll go to the Cheltenham bumper. He’s a big horse and you never know how much it takes out of them until a week or ten days after the race. He seems to have a nice temperament, in the parade ring before the race and in the winner’s enclosure afterwards, so that all helps when you are travelling across the water. He looks a real chasing type. We’ll see what happens him next year, whether we’ll go over hurdles. He’s six now so we might go straight chasing with him, I’m not sure hurdling would do anything for his career, but they are discussions for another day with his connections.
