I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong -- I don't have access
to the text this minute -- but I believe there's a scene in GoF after
the tournament announcement in which Harry *does* imagine himself as
Triwizard Champion.  I think it's after the welcome feast when
everyone has gone back to the dormitories, and there's some indication
that Harry wasn't the only one having the champion fantasy.

Ersatz Harry, who probably would have fit better in Ravenclaw himself
