    Yeh he was a sensible one to get in the book at 25's +. Hype is a bit like stereotypes, it exists for a reason. Most hype horses wont work and Malone Road and Flinteur Sacre have taught me that in recent years, but we've also had it right away on Shishkin at 33/1+ so its hard to discount buying into it, providing you get on at the right price. I doubt horses with his profile and price tag will come along that often, and Nicky has done well in the Supreme with these supposed tools. Gonna forget about him now.

      As mentioned elsewhere, it's the connections that make this one interesting. She won for a racing club and presumably Willie negotiated the deal for Kenny Alexander to take her on. You'd imagine that she wouldn't have been cheap.

        These walk in the park offspring are getting very popular/expensive... Like the looks of Ginto and im very interested in the mare Limerick lace too... We could end up having a witp progeny yankee soon

          I think it’s simply too early to make an assessment to be honest. Time will tell but the prices are (were) so very different.

            ....Hills have cut her to 14-1 ahead of this run, either they’ve taken some monies or don’t want to take a chance.

            • It will be interesting to hear Willie/Patrick's comments. On the face of it she did it well with her penalty.

              That's 2 bumper wins on heavy going. Mares Novice winners typically don't come from bumper ranks and it may turn out that 2 miles is on the sharp side over hurdles. She's clearly got a motor though.

                ....the markets are unchanged, 20-1 remains available.

                  Not for me at the moment. Definitely one for the tracker though.

                    ....slow reacting but PP & Betfair have now gone 12-1 from 20-1, perhaps there was positive comments afterwards. 365 only firm still offering 20-1.

                        Shewearsitwell still 16s with 365 and 50s for champion hurdle . At the minute mares hurdle is target but if she keeps going the right way it will be champion hurdle

                          Patrick mentioned she stays very well and stamina will be her forte...

                                I'm wondering the same. I do think at 50/1 the CH might be worth covering though.
