Drops back to 2m4f next time I may back her for the mares hurdle
She stays at 3 miles couldn't be interested In her for Cheltenham at all
Don’t think she would have won over any distance today.
Im a big fan of the horse but I would not back her in any race until I see her perform as I know she can.

She travelled very strongly so I wouldn't worry about her having lost her enthusiasm
the relkeel that she won last year would seem the ideal next race
If its a decent price I'd be tempted by a WTAF for that
Next run will be the big one for Marie's Rock. Got a suspicion she is better later in a season which isn't uncommon for mares. She has chucked in stinkers at this time of year previously including in the Greatwood 2 years ago and a listed handicap in 2020. However, if next race is the Relkeel over 2m 4f then we are none the wiser as to which race she would go for at the Festival.
And yet another example why we need to see 2 runs at a minimum before making any decisions.
Well I’ve already backed her for stayers and cannot cash out, so I am very interested to see her next race, but my gut says we won’t see her at her best again, whatever distance…… I really hope I’m wrong
I'd like to see a quote from the jockey or trainer as although she not have found anything I didn't get the impression the jockey asked for much. Will re-watch

the jockey was interviewed after the race and said she needed that to get the freshness out. I got the impression he wasn’t at all surprised by the run. He said relkeel next and was specifically asked about 3 miles (or what direction after the relkeel) and he said the plan is to return to 3 miles after the relkeel. So all eyes on the relkeel to see if she still has all her ability imo. For those assuming the 3 mile project is over, it isn’t according to Nico. He was quite clear.
P.s this obviously isn’t an exact quote, it is me paraphrasing, but the one thing he was crystal clear on was the intention to go back to 3 miles after the relkeel.

Well that gives me hope that I am wrong.
All eyes on the Relkeel indeed then.

Thanks RB I'll check out the quote. I'll certainly be keeping my Stayers ticket for her, cash-out is dismal anyway
I'd be really shocked if the Stayers was on the agenda at all now
I don't know how anyone would think she'd run there, unless they'd already backed her for the race.
Anyone that hasn't backed her for the Stayers already, after today, would you? She's 33/1?

Guess that depends on whether you believe what the Jockey said after race today?
21 of those 25 races he's been in the first 3. Winning 10 of them.
Cheltenham 4 times, finishing 1222 (thanks @Lobos)
That is not bad at all is it
Wildly over priced anyway? Might get beaten by Marie's Rock this weekend, but if he doesn't (and he's 2nd fav for that race).... meh.
The horse he was ahead of in the Stayers, Teahupoo, is the 6/1 current 2nd fav
Not sexy and won't get much love, but I'm going to back him each way at 66/1
and if they push him to 80/1 or even 100/1 after a defeat, I'll definitely be backing him again for the Stayers
