Very sad if that's true re Benie and revenge. Mullins should grow up , move on and just except they were beaten by the better horse on the day. I don't think they'll ever meet again.
Mullins, as archie has said countless times, will run every one of his horses that isn’t named Champagne Fever in the race they’re most likely to win.
it should come as now surprised that he has eyes on the Mares Hurdle...

But the Mares Chase will be easier to win surely? Even if Honeysuckle was to miss the Mares Hurdle. Am I the only person who thinks that ?? Am I really that far detached from everyone else or am I just way ahead in my thinking ?

Haha, I love how much Champagne Fever is on your mind all the time.

I agree with you that I think the Mares Chase will be easier to win to be fair... but Ista and Archie are making the point that it isn't the most likely target just because we think it'll be easier. If she gets entered for a Mares Chase in Jan/Feb then I'm sure Ista and Archie would consider that the new most likely target is the Mares Chase.
Until then, we're in the minority, as it's not the most likely place she ends up. I personally feel the odds compensate that now (after building up a +100 point return in free bets)

What are the race conditions ?
Grade 2s should always be easier to win than Grade 1s but that’s why they penalise the superior horses, as of now we don’t know what that penalty might be so it’s impossible to say whether that race is easier.
I’ll review when:
a) There’s more information coming from the yard around target
b) We know exactly what the conditions are for the new race
BENIE DES DIEUX
She had a little setback so won't be appearing until the second half of the season. She's a fantastic jumper over fences and I'd imagine we'll be going over fences. We'll look at the mares' chase at Cheltenham, or there is the mares' hurdle too.
Fran Berry visited Ireland's champion trainer and prolific Cheltenham Festival winner Willie Mullins to delve into his 2020-21 stable tour for Sporting Life readers before anyone else.
Just 5 remain in the Listed Mares Chase on Thursday at Clonmel. Good opportunity for Shattered Love to keep up her unbeaten run against her own sex in Mares Chases. Cabaret Queen and Magic of Light her biggest challengers.

I really rate Magic of Light - I think she'll be the one asking Shattered Love questions turning in

Will that be enough of a test in that company? Wouldn't mind her beaten and will try to pick up astronomical prices all year for GN, the whole season around that race I'm hoping.
Think 2/1 is a cracking price for Shattered Love tomorrow. Course and conditions very much in her favour. Think the trip will be a bit a sharp for Magic of Light.
