    Stick her in the county and watch her win i say
    Would be interesting to see the mark she'd get. Colonel Mustard is 144 for the Kennel Gate and she beat him easy.....but he came out the "best" at the weights that day. Her smashing up Belfast Banter and Jesse Evans might not help her cause either. Even if not taken literal!

      Completely agree she’ll not beat Honey but they’ll try her again in Graded company at Xmas.

      She fails to win that she’ll drop to an absolute perfect weight for the county.

      • Hopefully Townend will ride Echoes over Christmas and manage to settle her as he did last season

        • Appreciate It in to 9.6 on the exchanges for this... Adds some flavour to a Tuesday Mornin'

          • Interesting but would be surprised if that was informed money, that would have certainly come before entries (or lack thereof) yesterday you’d have thought. Probably people adding up the pieces we’ve got and coming up with an answer… Will remain to be seen whether they’re right or not but I’d be surprised personally.

            • Also worth noting he doesn’t even hold an entry for the matheson hurdle

                As much as it would be better for my book for Appreciate It to go for the Arkle, him coming here would make the race so much more interesting. I chanced 2pts on him for this last night with cash out. Could backfire massively if we find out he's injured or something but I'm happy to try my luck. Not sure he'd actually beat Honeysuckle but happy to have him as my main dart for this race at the prices.

                Now to wait for the chase entry/injury announcement

                • Tempting to back with cash out but the problem is the swiftness this year of 365 suspending when they get wind so I will keep the power dry for now.

                  • In theory appreciate it would have to be running 170+ to win..he hasnt ran since the supreme

                    • I dont think hed even beat honeysuckle off levels let alone giving her 7lb

                      He dominated a very weak novice division

                      • Looks like Appreciate It has been clipped into 10/1 for this with PP/BF. Not sure if that's enough of a cut to mean anything...

                        • They were biggest price,16/1, only a few days ago

                            Thats the main thing for me, be great if he turned up.

                              On RPRs be close, but ur right.....Honey 166 (173 with allowance) and Appr It 165 at Cheltenham last year.....and she may still be improving

                                I wonder if this is them following the exchange/general concern for entries? Or actual information. They seem to be the ones most ahead of the curve when something happens at Willie's.
