Each year at the Cheltenham National Hunt (Jumps) Festival in March there is a particular race which is run without obstacles and specifically for relatively inexperienced horses – The Weatherby Championship Bumper Race.
The top trainers such as Willie Mullins, Paul Nicholls etc target this race, as well as a great number of other Irish based Trainers, and many of the runners go on to win in the following months and years, however……
BUMPER PROFITS concentrates on those runners from outside of the top trainers and also the Irish based ones, by selecting those trained by the likes of Paul Webber, Victor Dartnall etc. The rationale behind this method is quite simple.

The race is a tough and competitive one, and not an occasion for a “schooling” session in public.
