The point made earlier about entering a mare is only really valid if she is in season, I have no idea if this can be predicted but mares in season are usually pulled anyway, if such a plan was to be hatched it would be entirely visible to everyone and I doubt it will go down well...

I'm pretty sure the original comment from Olliemagern was a joke ?, but the thoroughness and general earnesty of the discussion that has followed is admirable.
And besides, who knows if In This World is even interested in fillies and mares.
He could be concentrating on the eunuch's backsides.

Wouldn’t stop me backing him at a decent price ante-post but I’d be weary of backing him at a short price till I saw his antics in the parade ring on the day. But I’m sure that’s the case for many horses as Cheltenham does sometimes get the better of horses
