Mares Hurdle 2020

[Saxon Warrior]

Quevega would be an example of how desperate Willie is for getting a winner at the festival, any winner.

And a Tuesday winner is enjoyed all the more, as it settles any early nerves on how the horses are going to perform.

About time they changed the name of the race

[Humble Pie]

Anyone tried placing the BDD double ( Sunday & Festival) ?
Have tried 5 accounts saying that you cannot place a relative double BUT they’ll accept Honeysuckle double ? Betfred best odds .

Is this because of liabilities?
Either horse wins me a lot of money so I should leave as is but saw it as an opportunity, having said that Drury & Salsaretta yesterday !

If you get accepted on the Honeysuckle double theres every chance you wont get paid out. You wont get a refund if he loses but if she wins they will be within their rights under their terms and conditions to refuse to pay. Ive had this done to me and learnt the hard way to ask their traders to price up the double. Im not saying a few wont slip through coz im not that familiar with how bookies operate, but Ive had one of these bets land and they refused to pay. Just saying.

Thanks BillyMag
I was under the impression that if they accept the bet then it’s binding , obviously I’m wrong .
I’ll email them to seek clarification
Thanks mate
Just rang Fred and you are absolutely correct , they’d have informed me after the first leg where it would have been picked up on their system .
They agreed that I shouldn’t have been allowed to place the bet and they’re crediting my account .
Would have been well hacked off if it’d had won !!
Thanks again

PS asked if Traders could quote a price and told no

Absolutely this. Not worth doing it as, when Honey wins Sunday, you'll spend the next 3 months wondering.

You can always request a price.
Sky do request a bets, betway bet your way, I’m sure others do too.
Whatever your preferred bookie ask them for a price, it’ll be less than you are probably expecting though...

True. To win both races you may get 5/1 Benie and 10/1 Honey. Take your pick

[Kevloaf]

That's just it though. It's not unfinished business. She won it in 2018. That's my last bit on this race until after Sunday. Let the horses do the talking! Can't wait.

Regaining a crown too... the 'would be 3 time champion'.

I can't realistically see a scenario where BDD lines up anywhere but the Mares race if she's fit and well. Laurina coming back over hurdles after a botched Chase campaign, Paisley Park injured, Honeysuckle thrashes her and BDD running over Christmas against the boyus over 3m and bolting up would ALL need to happen for it to even get considered

Agree with the last bit but the first two points....not having it.

[Kevloaf]

Lay her for this race then.... if you're right BDD will lose this weekend and drift, and then you tink she'll be in the stayers.... so you could be making money so easily if you're right?

You're probably right but never been a layer of horses. Won't be backing Honey either. Just watching with bated breath this Sunday. If Honey loses then I'll take it on the chin. Don't think it'll happen though !

As a massive honey fan Lobos what do you make of the 7/2 on offer?

She’s won on the snaff plenty but has still a decent bit to find.

I am a huge fan of Benie but Honey has more speed, jumps better, travels that much better and, to me, has more class than Benie. She still has it to prove on Sunday but I have every confidence she will. 7/2 will prove to be a gift but it's all about March for me and I'm all in for the Mares so Sunday is just a watching/enjoying day for me. What a fabulous race to have this early in the season. Magic.

I find PP and WH are the best firms to price these up, they can sometimes be wildly apart so if your not happy with price offered by the first dont assume the other will be the same price, sometimes you get a nice surprise.
