Arkle 2020

[Kevloaf]

Unlikely they will. Samcro will be at 2 1/2. You'd have to think melon would be going towards the Irish arkle, where as samcro will be going toward the flogas. And laurina messing about in mares company (hope I'm wrong)

They can't fluff about with Laurina again can they?

They can, and imo they will.
That's why I want none of her, for that reason. Makes me sick when she wins an awful race... and the impending WOWWW SHES A SUPERSTAR!!!!! Posted 5 seconds after beating alletrix 20L on the bridle in a mares chase.

[Quevega]

she's progressed since then to beating stormy island

Is there many mares novice chases in the programme anyway ?
archie might know.

Loads a huge program. Pravaluaguna and the other ricci horse ran in last year. Camellia de Cotte.

[Quevega]

definitely be faffing about then I reckon.
Hopefully they surprise us.

The new Benie Des Dieux

[Kevloaf]

Yes, to be fair, Melon and Laurina are unlikely to meet Samcro, I just meant that generally, Mullins' good chasers will meet Elliott's on the way...

Feb? haha

The new Benie Des Dieux

Well that’s just a ridiculous comparison. Benie beat the French mare last year in their Champion Hurdle which is 10 times better than any run from Laurina ever.

Haha, it was more a throwback to scooby knocking my liking of Benie Des Dieux while she was winning some rubbish novice chases.... backing her e/w for the Mares Hurdle that year NRNB and without Apples Jade NRNB.


So she could be the new Benie Des Dieux, quite easily.

In fact, I don't know what you're going on about.

Are you saying Laurina is going to go in Novice Chases and has no chance of reaching BDD's level????

Cannot bet Laurina for anything
Can’t mention the “ L” word in the same sentence as BDD

[Kevloaf]

Before Benie Des Dieux won the Mares race, what had she achieved?


A 2.5L with over Asthuria????

She went into Mares Hurdle rated 147 and came out rated 149. (RPR of 152 for both runs).

This year they gave her 151 and RPR 156 when falling when winning.


Whether you agree with the rating or not, you can't dismiss Laurina being able to reach BDD's level.... Her OR's have been 144, 150 (chelt), 152, 155, 159

She might not be worth those ratings but even if she isn't, she's not going to be WAY BEHIND what BDD has shown!

I was just replying to your comparison. I like Laurina but atm, Benie is a much better horse. To be fair, my reply was also in response to the ‘Benie’ or ‘Laurina’ debate from the other day
