Mares Hurdle 2020

....bits of blue on Oddschecker for a few of the bigger priced ones. Perhaps punters looking for placed options, or readying for possible detection of the favourite. Black Tears into 40-1 nrnb with 365 is still way bigger than any other firm.

Isnt this just a simple case of some firms adding this to their NRNB portfolio and tightening the prices?

...it could well be, Jack, but it seemed more specific for this race and only a selection of bigger priced horses.

It'll be interesting to see which of the red brigade turn up here.

Don’t think Willie will run Stormy Ireland 19 days before Cheltenham?

Seems to be against his MO.

I don’t reckon Laurina will go to Cheltenham even if she won this.

Wouldn't it be interesting if she cantered all over this lot and won by 8. Would do if she was 100% as well. Benie vs Laurina wouldn't be happening then surely.
Her 8/1 NRNB isn't the worst.
She canters in they might just consider Benie to the stayers. 8/1 vs Honeysuckle wouldn't be right.
All unlikely to happen, and it might be her who steps up to stayers trip. 14/1 not the worst there either.

I've backed her in every race going and she's embarrassed me so far.
If she runs and runs well here, then the mares or stayers are most likely.

Laurina back over hurdles tomorrow......

Laurina back over hurdles tomorrow......

“We’ll just give her a run back over hurdles as a confidence-booster. She didn’t race with any enthusiasm and didn’t jump with any enthusiasm at Sandown.
“Her home work is fine. This race at Punchestown is coming up and it’s timed well enough for Cheltenham. If she runs well there we’ll have a look at our options,” Mullins said.

Willie keeping it simple

“As far as I’d be concerned Benie is going for the Mares Hurdle. She’s good enough to run in the Stayers. But I think keep it simple,” he said.
“She’s in great order, in great form and at the moment her target is the Mares Hurdle,” Mullins added.

[Kevloaf]

There just isn't an angle in backing Laurina for this race NRNB is there?

8/1 and even if she shortened Benie would wallop her and it'd be a bet for the places only.
