    Also, for all she won at ease- not one horse has done anythign worth noting from her wins since.

    Whereas, Telmesomethinggirl is not much shorter, and has done plenty.
    Two for a roll up then jack1092

      She was 20's when Spectre posted BT news. Agree though that 12's now is tight.....ish.

        Burning Victory at 33/1 is unbelievable value for me in a wide open market now with the reigning champ officially scratched!

          Probably bigger than it should be but she does need to learn to jump . She was desperate and beaten out of sight at Punchestown and mistakes cost her again at Galway. She appears much happier on the flat and is going back to France for more easy pickings according to Willie before going back to winter jumping. I'll need to see her over hurdles again before deciding to add her .

            Her hurdling at Galway actually wasn’t too bad considering the huge field & tight track she missed two off the top of my head but if Willie can sharpen her leaping she’s bang there with a chance. I’m happy to disregard the Punchestown run personally.

              20f on the Old Course ?
              She’s just battled Buzz all the way to the line pulling a long say clear of the field in a brutal Cesarevich test and the winner has been confirmed to be targeting the Stayers.
              If they don’t fancy taking on the best in the Stayers then maybe the Pertemps is ideal for her.
              As is usually the case for Triumph winners, they generally need further in later life, I could easily be wrong but I just think that Mares hurdle won’t make best use of her obvious stamina…

                I don’t think the hustle & bustle of the Pretemps would suit at all, the Mares Hurdle tends to be a smaller field & Wille has historically kept mares to their allocated races!

                  You’ve nailed it. 33/1 looks almost like a mistake it’s so juicy, but a cursory glance through her jumping would put people off 66 let alone 33. She’s a terrible jumper of a hurdle. Not sure if they’ve tried fences, but she clearly enjoys the level more and I think that’s how she’ll be campaigned

                    Concertiesta and Gauloise for me in this race with a back up bet on Shewearsitwell if she is to be seen this season. Happy with there prices and chipping away at them.

                    Consertiesta got beaten by a small margin, has solid form around Cheltenham and the owners will want her here. I feel Gauloise is progressing and the extra half mile will suit her more than the 2 mile of the MNH.

                      Concertista isn't as good as I thought she was and they could decide to take a fence with her, she's huge. Not for me.

                        Concertista has had a wind op amid an issue I read somewhere so id be wary of her at this moment in time TKP.

                          That could be good news for backers ? Perhaps that's the reason she disappointed in her final two races?

                              Realise she's not set the world alight at Fairyhouse but her effort last year at festival wasn't bad in 6th, losing position in final bit didn't help - not that she would have won - but will be interesting to see how she gets on this season when she's entered up
                              Shes still a novice, so likely to go mares nov if anything. Think you've got your races mixed up.

                                Would Gauloise disappointing here in the mares novice worry you? Didn't run any sort of race.
