Still think many just assume Willie must have a belter one. Cracking value there for Gavin's horse.

Who?
Also, when I say "sets the standard" that is me acknowledging something could come out .... but I think 6/1 is a very fair price

Aurora Vega was similar and she was 100/1 at one point too...
For every Lulamba, there are 10 others that get over hyped
You've been on here long enough, you can't honestly say you'd rather take Maughreen at 5/1 than Sixandahalf at 6/1 can you?

I honestly don't know but can't think of any in last 3/4 years
2019 he won with 50/1 shot Eglantine Du Seuil
2018 was Laurina and she won in the Dec and Jan (2 runs)
2017 was Let's Dance, who was a second season novice as well
2016 - Limini - won 30th Jan that year (ran in hte May the year before) before winning the inaugural running
I wouldn't have a boner for Maughreen myself at that price based on the trainers record so far in the race, so I agree

Sounds like both Willie and Patrick are having constant boners the way they talk about her.
That sounds bad as she was named after their mum/gran
If she comes out and wins then the 5/1 becomes 2/1 or less and the 5/1 will then have looked value.

Also, they always talk up a few random ones that have personal connections.... what was that one that his Mum owned and they just banged on about it for ages and it was really average .... omg that's gonna annoy me loads
