He's ran them before in open company races.

She'll have a penalty here and if she shows up well at the DRF, i wouldn't rule it out.

[FredFlintstone]

Allegorie & Brandy & Grangee declared. Interested to see who Townend rides…

[FredFlintstone]

Allegorie De Vassy (FR)(133)

Mrs S Ricci

W.P. Mullins

Sean O'Keeffe(T)

[Lobos]

And why wouldn't they want him to keep the ride. Rode her perfectly last time.

[ToniC]

Looks like townend on brandy love

[FredFlintstone]

I suspect Brady Love will shorten today

[Lobos]

Impervious tipped up for this in Sporting Life

[FinalFurlong91]

Yes will probably be 6s at best by this evening if townend has picked

I did back yukon lil for this a few years ago because townend picked her in the sollerina

She finished last of willies 3 at fairyhouse and got beaten half the track into 4th by Concertista at the festival

Yep and Colreevy with Danny on board was actually favourite for the race in the end, the market will be interesting!

Allegorie is lobbed in the Paddy Mullins hcap off 133. The race is worth ?59k & she’d get no penalty. She’s in the unusual position of being able to run due to previous runs over hurdles in France.

The Solerina is worth ?17k & the winner gets a penalty for Cheltenham.

Despite being declared I’d be surprised if she ran on Sat against Brandy Love - it just doesn’t make sense!

[Lobos]

Good shout Splinter

[FinalFurlong91]

Would her jumping hold up in a competitive handicap?

She was a bit big and slow especially early on, do that in a handicap you'll get shuffled back and race over

Willie may block enter but he doesn't declare lightly.

With mares, it's all about black type and the owners will gladly take a win and a 5lb penalty. In terms of broodmare prospects, a place in the Solerina is more valuable than a win in the handicap.

Grangee 5/2
