Mares Novice Hurdle 2019

Scooby91 said:
She'll be very hard to beat. She has superior form to honeysuckle and epetante. A superior rating to both. And you'll likely see what Paul has to say about her at the preview evenings. He's very sweet on her. And rightly so.

The likes of epatante has pace. Is she good enough to cruise up to posh Trish. And is she good enough to get past her and stay past. We won't have a clue until the day as she's beaten trees. But she'll have to have a hell of alot under the bonnet.

....you’re the expert, but I fully expect Emily Moon to blast out and try and make all in this so the pace is likely to be fast.
 
I’ve been very impressed impressed with Posh Trish over the past 18 months, she has solid bumper form and been racing in some very competitive races this year. I’m with you on Posh Trish Scooby and still surprised her odds are still double figures

I quietly like it Scooby. The issue i have is when Irish mares head over the water for any race, not just this, they seem to laugh at the English. Is the 145 she has achieved as rock solid as it sounds?

If so, she should have an entry in the Ballymore over a trip that would suit her much better as Nichols has said "she stays all day".

Mares novice always been the plan.
She's what I hoped colreevy would be.

Indefatigable has ran against lady buttons and Irish roe. Who are 2 good mares. Posh Trish was giving 5 pounds having a quick turn around and making easy work of it.
I'd find it very hard to believe posh Trish wouldn't make light work of sassy diva.

Paul has the likes of if you say run etc.. at home. To have a look at her against.

No love for the 145 rated. Rock solid. Posh Trish.

Brushed indefatigable aside giving her 5 pounds, who gave lady buttons life and death. The highest rated mare in the field by some way. She'll be very hard to pass and even harder to stay infront of up the hill.
if indeed anything manages to get to her.

Would you not expect Lust for Glory to have more pace than her on good ground? I'd agree shes overpriced though

Was just about to bring this one up. Surely she comes into the argument if Posh Trish is fancied?

None of us know what the ground will be. But NO, posh Trish imo is better than lust for glory. Lust for glory is a very nice mare herself. If you watch that race back you can see what happens with posh Trish and she went very well to the line. Shes also come on for that experiance and fitness wise.
She gave her a pasting on her next start, where she led and quickened away from her.
She was untouched by lust for glory who tried to get into the race but just couldn't do so. With the from running tactics of posh Trish and her ability to quicken when something gets near her.

Lust for glory just hosed up herself at the weekend in the style of epatante but also against trees.

A pasting? You mean the same distance Lust For Glory beat Posh Trish by the first time :highly_amused::devilish:

Yeah he does, If you say run wouldn't get near a typical winner of this. I guess thats part of your thinking though, this year there's no Mullin's hotpot.

Irish Roe + LB are two decent mares, but Buttons better over fences + Irish Roe a little in and out.
 
'Daphne Du Clos pleased me too there. She goes into the race as a maiden over hurdles but if she's going to lose her maiden tag at this stage she'd be better off doing it in a race of this nature.'

Pleased to get a run for my money, but not particularly hopeful.

Looks to be the case. Writing was on the wall once Betfair went 40's about her for the race.

Entries closed today and will be released this week. RP just has 'possible entries'.
 
She can still be entered. Market suggests she wont be.
 
Hi all, new to the forum. Great source of information here from many seriously clued up people so thank you.

Re: Allez Dance, I requested a price from PP and they added her on the 23rd Feb at 20-1 NRNB. They also introduced her to the BFSB market at 40s which I thought was generous, or do they know more information ;-)

Hindsight and patterns would both suggest the latter.

Why is there not more made of the Mullins/PP/Betfair relationship? Even the Hendo/Unibet bunk up doesn't seem to deviate so wildly from other bookmakers. Are their prices by design because people know they're linked with Ruby/Mullins so they just go shorter on their possibilities? Or do they genuinely get fed information that influences their odds? Because if it's the latter, is that not a massive bad thing?

Apologies for all the /
 
i think you'll find that Gordon Elliott and Joseph O'Brien are PP/Betfair ambassadors. The Mullins link is Ruby Walsh and none of these links is particularly good for the game.
