She will go to the MNH and then after Cheltenham, if she's thought good enough to take on the boys, she can do that at Aintree in the Grade 1 NovH over 2M that stablemate Jonbon won last season.
I agree the mnh is more likely, but I do think discussions will be had, and with the trainer having nothing else in the Supreme, the temptation will exist.
She would certainly add to the race.
I hope it happens, be very interesting.
I wasn't around much for the hoo ha of Facile Vega's defeat. Clearly he had issues on the day, and was put out in front like it was Jonbon vs Dysart in last seasons Supreme all over again, so my question to those who were very keen on him beforehand, IF Facile Vega turns up in the Supreme, fit and well (which he'd have to be to be declared you would hope), can you forgive him the run at the DRF and will he still be your number one for the race?

I think the market has already answered that for you mate.
Can't remember what he was pushed out to after the race, 6/1 rings a bell, but has been shorted every since and is now what, 3/1 ?

You may well be right mate, I think Boyles went 6/1 and that was it, the majority were 7/2 when I looked, I think, and he's still 10/3 so not a huge change really.

I had basically nothing on him before but went in after he drifted. He is categorically is my number one for the race and IMO it's easy to forgive what happened last time.
When SkyBet restricted me after Cheltenham last year for winning a few bets on the Friday, when you do things like that....I've kept really quiet but I'll tell you something, they went down in my estimations when they did that. I have not resorted to that. You can tell them now, Facile Vega is still fighting for the Supreme, and everyone else has got to go to Cheltenham and get something.
And I'll tell you honestly, I will love it if SkyBet have to pay out on them Facile Vega RABs from last year.

Alot of blue for Luccia and Impaire Et Passe on oddschecker today. Betfair sportsbook also pushed FV out to 10/3. Doesn't look to be any movements on the exchange though to match.
Bizarrely, and this took me totally by surprise, I happened to log into my Sky account a week or so back to watch a race stream and for the hell of it I threw some horses into a betslip to see what the max stake was, the pitiful restrictions they applied two years ago appear to have been reviewed up.
Singles are still impossible but they were allowing me half decent stakes on multiples, when trying to place a patent the limit is low but I was able to add trixie, treble and doubles for (again) restricted stakes but it meant the total amount I could get on wasn't terrible.
I was pleasantly surprised....
