It’s all quality - that entries list"Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head". -
I can't let Burning Victory go unbacked here @ 33/1 (B365). She's 16's and 20's elsewhere, and a good showing in the Hatton's Grace could see that halve. The issue is clearly jumping, but to me she exudes raw ability and has a huge engine. She tanks through her races and travels so strongly, but is often held up ridden to beat runners. It was quite hard to assess her jumping at Galway because she was behind a wall of horses and the instructions were clearly to smuggle her into the race, as they were in the Triumph. I'd like to see them abandon those tactics and try racing her more prominently, giving her a good sight of her obstacles and if necessary, throwing her at hurdles to try and get her into more of a rhythm out in front. The Hatton's Grace might not be the place to try that though. If she takes up that engagement, I can see her running well and her price for this slowly going down and down.

Tellmesomethinggirl and Gauloise both declared for Sunday. Only others of note are Royal Kahala and Heaven Help UsComment

Will be extremely hard for Telmesomethinggirl to win giving loads of weight. Good to see her out though. A nice tidy round of jumping and a few lengths off them in a place will be perfect. Win and she goes big favourite. Being greedy, I'd like Gauloise to win and then any talk of chasing would be shelved.Originally posted by Winging The Last View PostComment

The only thing re Cheltenham for Gauloise is that they have said and it looks that she has to go right handed, so Cheltenham wouldn't be good for here like the MNH wasn't. She may stick to hurdles but she may stick to IrelandOriginally posted by Lobos View PostComment

Missed this, when was this said?Originally posted by Winging The Last View Post
Remember Mullins saying he was probably too easy on her before Cheltenham and she's a horse that needs a lot of work.Comment

There's been strong support for Royal Kahala in today's mares hurdle at Punchestown. Anyone making a book for the race in March may want to take the 33s with Paddy's incase she runs well or wins today.

I’ve moaned about these prices a lot this season, but that does seem fair. Only issue is she seems a bit unloved in the market for today.Originally posted by Eggs View PostComment

Poor reappearance that from TMSG, terms were against her but she wasn't fluent over her hurdles and didn't pick up, was 5l off leaders 2 out and beaten 10l, connections cam only be disappointed with that effort...Comment

Willie will be delighted with that
KIng of the mares
Winning that listed race with his 11th best mare.
Beating a bag of shit in behind. (bit harsh)Comment

hopefully a good return for SWIW whenever she returns after this, think she'll be by far the best mare in it if she reaches cheltenhamComment

I'm not as downbeat as you, thought she finished pretty strongly. She looked fairly unfit and I'm not too concerned. Think she'll come on a fair bit for that run.Originally posted by Istabraq View PostComment

That has to be the hope SB, no idea how wound up she was for today but the market spoke fairly positively so I am assuming more was expected...Originally posted by Silverbirch View PostComment
