  • I agree with most of that Scooby, but with Epatante instead. And of course I've backed the shorties too.

    Just hoping Epatante can settle, think she'd not be without hope at 33's also.

      You won't see a better jumper of a hurdle than elfile. I'm excited about seeing what she can do this season up at 2 1/2. I wouldnt be surprised at all, If she can beat stormy ireland, honeysuckle and the rest of the lot from last year, over the trip. Which is important. (She wouldn't beat them over 2m) whether that in itself is good enough to beat BDD, i couldn't be confident

        I think she might be a county hurdle horse. I wouldnt be sure She's that good like people were hoping though. I see nothing that makes me think her mares nov run, was all wrong.

        • Honeysuckle shortening a lot for Sunday....personally think BDD is swerving it. Money for Bacardys too.

            You may well be right.

            I guess for 33/1 I'm hoping she can settle and the injection was the reasoning for the below par performance. This weekend will be telling.

              looks suspicious.
              good news for those that took the 7/2 maybe ?

                Would be a real shame if so. Takes the shine off the race.

                • Swerving it she is. Mullins obviously doesn't want an early season showdown, all about March.

                  Prepare for the "wasn't showing her same spark in her work on Thursday" comment.

                    And there be the problem taking a trainers word, from one day to the next, they can not be trusted on. They will have their reasons, and that I respect, but taking everything that is said as gospel can hurt the wallet more than anything at times, I've been there.

                    Jack, I do believe you had your doubts anyway, so good work on that.

                    Not the ideal scenario though, and I do think WPM will avoid Honeysuckle until the festival tbh.

                      "Benie Des Dieux definitely runs on Sunday and she is in good order. We have a few in that*– Bacardys, Penhill and Killultagh Vic*– and they could all turn up. Foveros runs in the Royal Bond."
                      Willie Pinocchio Mullins. Definitely.

                      • He wants to see how Honeysuckle stacks up against his others I reckon.
                        Think it shows how much he likes BDD.

                          You could be right. He did seem certain that she'd run though so I think she must have not been firing the last few days. Better to be safe than sorry. We all know she can go straight there as well which I suspect will now happen.

                            Yes Q HP the psycho p agrees
                            From a punting point of view I haven’t bet BDD for this .
                            WPM doesn’t give a toss about punters but cares deeply about his horses

                            • BTW, for anyone 11/4 Honeysuckle right now

                              Considering now we know the landscape of the race, i'd be much more interested in a bet. Not sure if it's Honeysuckle though.

                              I personally still think she has it to prove. Apples and herself will probably want to lead. I wouldnt be surprised to see Killultagh Vic up there just to annoy them. He's lead in the past and stays further and this is probably a pipe opener.
                              Penhill + Bacardys then pounce late
