"I’ll have a word with Paul though because he said she was probably going as fast as she was able to so when the better hurdlers come out it might be difficult. So far so good."
Enough in that quote to make me cautious about taking a short price on her
He said he had the feeling she was the best novice mare in the yard (of the summer ones I assume) so was kept for this race - but she suprised him in the manner she won today with the depth of the race. There is a grade 3 mares hurdles at Down Royal he mentioned and also the Royal Bond. Full interview below.

The time explains that.
But you're correct with the price angle now. for this race in particular.

I read that as she needs a stiffer test/track perhaps. 2m around Cheltenham will be perfect
Very unusual for Willie to run a horse 3 times already if he thinks she's the best Mare he has. Like others I think he might have better in the yard however only time will tell.

Part of W. Mullins post race interview was I'll have a word with Paul though because he said she was probably going as fast as she was able to, so when the better hurdlers come out it might be more difficult.
I think Goodbye Someday has probably ran a personal best today and still been trounced. The winner is a slick hurdler and looks as if she has bags of pace. That isn't a recipe for going up in trip. She might well be good enough to run in a Supreme but how many of his good fillies and mares has the trainer run in that race? It is about winning as many races as possible at the Festival and he is almost certain to have geldings good enough to run in the Supreme.
I hope I don’t regret it but I cashed out my bets on Princess Zoe and re-invested I’m Hook Up and Gypsy Ireland. I don’t know that much about mares flat racing but yesterday’s win seemed to big a victory to revert back to muddy big field winter hurdles.
