      • Are they not just talking about the 4th run being in the listed Mares at Sandown or the G2 at Aintree though ??

        • Can't have run more than 3 times prior to the champion bumper. The 4th run can be in this race according to the BHA: The 6-y-o bit is also confusing. I interpreted it as a
          6-y-o (or older) could not run but Exar Essay suggested that a horse that turns 6 on the 1st of Jan 2024 is allowed. All very confusing.

                                Agreed. You’d say it’s between him and Jasmin for Patrick’s ride on what we’ve seen so far.
