    Maybe you will get more next time.
    Dont give up on her imo, I think the winner is good and imo so will she be.

      Certainly not given up on her. Pace was very slow today which wouldn't have helped either. Next time will tell us a lot more.

      • BP on Diva Luna...


        “Delighted. We’ll get a lot of stick for getting her beaten, but that’s just what happens these days sadly. “I thought she jumped beautifully, I thought she travelled really well and she was probably just vulnerable to one that has very good form herself.
        “We don’t want to underdo the winner, she’s a very nice horse. This was our first run, she took a fair old blow turning in and I think she’ll come on a ton for it. It’s a great starting point.”

          Yep, pretty much how I saw it.
          Glad to hear trainer pleased and saying she will come on a lot

          • Anyone know what's happening with Jeroboam Machin? Not heard any news or potential rides coming up?

              He wasn’t back in training in November according to Ginger Joe. But Danny Mullins suggested he was in the yard at least in November. Haven’t heard anything for a few weeks.

              • Anyone heard anything re plans for Roadlesstravelled?
                I quiet liked his runs so far.
                Sees his races out well for a keen sort .
                Think 40 is ok for Supreme.

                    Emma Nagle put up Jereboam Machin as one of her 5 to follow last month , so presume an entry will be upcoming ??.

                      Would like to see Kel Histoire winning here but with Kilgame staying on eye catchingly. That's what my wallet wants to see anyway

                        Have connections said they're intended runners?

                          No, but both Kel Histoire & Kilgame have been entered a few times now, and looks as though ground will finally be OK for both that I'm expecting both out sooner rather than later. Hoping it's this Friday.

                          • That last race ran like a who's who ? for the martin pipe.
                            and joystick will probably be better when he goes over fences, unless he's one of coastal path's spazzy jumpers.

                            • ….Port Joulain pulled-up and dismounted there, hope all is well and it was precautionary.

                              • Surprised they ran him to be honest, ran very poorly at Punchestown when it was yielding and it’s described as good/yielding today.

                                Won his point on soft and his flat race win on heavy.

                                As you say though, hopefully the horse is ok.
