2023 Mares Novice Hurdle

You just know based on that , Shishkin will end up in the Champion Chase.

….I think Ryanair is the only entry, seemed a bit odd but I suppose he could be supplemented.

Yep, Nicky will have to get his hand in his pocket for him and Epatante!

….Deeply Superficial a NR today.
 
Aye, visually she's so good. Think I'd have her is Supreme this year if she were mine! With no standout in there this year.

Also hope she goes here though :welcoming:

You'd imagine with her interrupted preparation they will want to take the (supposed) easier option.
 
Being lazy and possibly blind to something, but does Nicky have anything in the supreme?
 
Nico trying to talk hendo into supreme by saying she’d be good enough to take on the boys
 
I think the layout of the two tracks, the mares novice would suit better with that long run between last 2 and less pressure on jumping
 
She might be very good but there’s something niggling away at me that she’ll get found out at Cheltenham. Watching her with the naked eye at Newbury she gave me vibes of Apples Shakira at trials day - won easily enough but felt there was something missing. She was messy at the last today, whilst a comfortable win, it has not made those thoughts go away. She’s now far too short imo and look forward to taking her on win lose or draw.

Henderson said Jockey she would be good enough to take them on, that’s different to saying they should go there.
