IDOLES DES JEUNES
She's a lovely, strong filly who has just a little problem at the moment but we hope to have her out at Christmas time and try and prepare her for the good mares' races in the spring.
She's another Jack Cantillon purchase that looks a bargain. She's a mare that'll never go over fences, she's nice and tidy but seems to have a big engine.
She was very impressive at Galway to come from behind in a big field to win going away. Any horse that can do that is very impressive and there will be big targets for her later in the season.
....that’s one I took note of too. General 20-1 but 36-1 with Hills boost if prepared to take a risk.

Yep, she is definitely worth a second look. Hasn't run over Hurdles yet and is still only 4 so she still has a bit to prove. I still think Shewearsitwell will be his number 1. Even in his stable tour there aren't many novice Mares that stand out at the moment. Perhaps a lot are for next year
Anything interesting from Mullins on any of his novice mares?
Shewearsitwell 5m Shirocco - Ware It Vic Closutton Racing Club 111 RPR 147h
She's a really sharp hurdler who should give her connections something to shout about this season. She's in the Royal Bond and we'll see if she's good enough for that class. That will determine where she goes for the rest of season.
Gjoumi 4f Maresca Sorrento - Onvavoir Sean McManus 1/4- RPR 117h
You'd have to say it was a very encouraging first run for us in a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse behind Burning Victory. She's sure to make a name for herself in mares' novice hurdles this season and will give her owner Sean McManus plenty to smile about.
Hook Up 4f No Risk At All - Mission Accomplie Mrs S Ricci 30- RPR 120h
She had a good run at Fairyhouse behind Burning Victory on her first start for us. While she couldn't get competitive when it mattered in the Triumph, she'll be well able to hold her own in the good mares' novice hurdles this season.
Just sounds to me like they have plans to send her to the Supreme/Ballymore... hope I’m wrong of course!
I didn't interpret it that way myself, I just thought they meant they want to see if she is actually grade 1 class. They'd be bonkers to send her for the Supreme over the Mares Novice wouldn't they? Well (not bonkers in my opinion) but just looking at Willie's previous decisions, they'll put the horses in the races they're most likely to win, and it's unlikely the Supreme looks easier than the Mares Novice.

Airlie Beach too...
That’s true yes.. I’m always very wary with Mullins

Do you think she would have to win the Royal Bond for her to be rated good enough to go to the Mares Novice Hurdle ? I was interested to see Concertista entered for the race. If she were to run, surely she would have a hell of a chance?? Maybe she's not forward enough yet though.
