    ...but win was never really in doubt, think the runner up a little flattered

    Only By Night just dominated Fun Fun Fun then still won against a horse only ridden to pick up the pieces
    Yeah pretty much my thought after my original comment which is why I edited my post

    Haha and a classic case from me of finding a reason not to part with further funds on a race I have little love for

      No. She won't win that.

        I think she'd only run in it if one of the biggies didn't, so I think she's a good play at 25/1 NRNB personally

        • Only by night won’t stay the mares trip especially as well as some others in my view, no chance on the new course and if it rains I’d only be on bioluminescence.

            As well as who else MM?

            Shes a 3m point winner, and they went some lick there today - look at where FFF finished after racing alongside throughout, receiving 5lbs too.

            Wouldn't be one bit worried about her staying, unless it was bottomless, but then in that case anyway, I'd fancy Bio .

              I think it's between the two of them. Soft ground Bio, but anything else I'd be with Only By Night. Think she's brilliant.

              Backed both at big prices but will be cheering on ONB

              • I think Telepathique is a live one for this race. All the leading protagonists have some negatives. I think it’s quite open.

                  Cherie d'Am may interest you then. She stuffed Telepathique with little excuses, IMO. She then went up against the geldings in the G2 Towton Novices Chase, where she fell, when weakening, but the winner that day was Handstands no less, who obviously then went on to win the Scilly Isles and is now rated 154. The 2nd also went and won next time out.

                  I've no idea on the plans for Cherie d'Am but she's not been seen since falling so maybe there's reason to take caution with her, but she's almost double the price of Telepathique on the exchanges, when she's already handed that one a beating.

                  I've played a few pennies on there for her.
