  • Just asking my racing manager, but from what I recall, 10 percent jockey, ten percent trainer and eighty percent owner. I know that the staff have pool money which is divided up, but not sure how it is sorted

    • Please refer to BHA schedule 9, distribution of prize money. More complicated than I ever noticed

      • Brandy could be straight there

          • It may not be everyone's cup of tea to go to a race without a run but I like the idea of the unknown. We really don't know how good (or bad) she could be going left handed. It keeps the other trainers guessing how their mares compare too, although I suspect they will be focused mainly on just getting their ones there in the first place.

            It also keeps her price 'honest' for those that do believe she could be special.

              The dots ad up for this.
              But Cheltenham might be her toughest race.
              All the spring festivals and big mares races are left handed.

              Cheltenham
              Aintree
              Punchestown
              Auteuil

              I'd expect if she is fit she'll run in three of those.

              • Completely fine with it, she'll improve a couple pounds going left handed which will make up for her having no prep run

                • The pornstar will bolt up​​​​​​

                  Her going left handed is no issue at all if you watch last seasons seasonal debut. Runs well fresh and has untapped potential! She'd have absolutely walloped that field last year, no reason for me to think she won't have improved from there again.

                  • Mares Hurdle still definitely an option for Honeysuckle...

                    “I think we see how the Irish Champion Hurdle goes and we’ll all sit down and going by Peter’s quotes, thrash it out together! I think the most important thing is we keep all our options open. I suppose my job is to find the race I’ve the best chance of winning.
                    “That may not be what we go with. At the moment, looking at Constitution Hill and he’s whatever price he is, 1-3. I’m not saying the Mares’ race would be an easy race, but you might have a better chance of winning that than you would a Champion, if all the players turn up.

                    “But we have to get through the Irish Champion Hurdle first and that’s a big test for us also. We’ve got plenty to do in between.”

                      • Echoes in Rain runs tomorrow in the Limestone Lad. Think she's a decent bet at evens there. Might look for a win today bet so I can get her onside for this race again... Watched it back again the other day and still convinced she got a poor ride in this last year

                            14/1 best I can see?

                              ….yep, it was 25-1 when I posted the Sunday offers, now into 14-1 Hills.

                              • Wish I'd have had a go at 25s. Bit pointless at 14s. She's bigger on the exchange for just the Mares. Evens tomorrow as well, so can't see her going 6s for this.

                                Hopefully Hills boost it tomorrow! Or someone else does.
