2026 Mares Hurdle

Aye she’s clear second fav on the day if she came here so 20’s is definitely worth the risk, she’d be a similar price to what Wodhooh is to lossie at the minute imo.

365 still dangling 20/1 for JDG. Surely that’s worth a cheeky play at those odds

Not cheeky.......I'd say guaranteed if Lossiemouth does what expected next weekend

Can also now see Wadhooh being supplemented for CH when Lossiemouth puts BDA to bed so Jade could go off fav

Wadhooh would beat her and spit her out but she may now be supplemented for the CH depending on next week's result
 
Gordon had to wait until the last race of the festival in 2025 to win a race. The relief on his face was so evident when he was interviewed in the parade ring. There is no chance he sends Wodhooh to the Champion when she’s the best mare in training over hurdles aside from Lossiemouth, who surely goes to the race on Tuesday now.

Wodhooh isn't even the best mare in the yard, let alone the 2nd best in training over hurdles...

people forget how good BDA is

That run last year where she won by uneccesarily far clearly ended her season

I have always thought shed be better at 2m4f than 2 miles but i doubt she comes here

I think she's better when she chases a strong gallop, so 2m with a pacemaker (left handed too). But she didn't go a yard round Chelt last season

My take on BDA is that you can ignore anything she did last year after that Xmas run. It was the type of performance that would take the rest of the season to recover from. Mares Novice then everyone has their opinion. The form of the race doesn't look so bad in hindsight and my take was that Kennedy and Townend were so focussed on what each other was doing (BDA was 5/6 fav and JDG 2/1, 10/1 bar) that they ignored anything else and got caught out.

With a solid run at the DRF then there should be no excuses this time round fingers crossed.
 
Similar to what most are saying, Ruby speaking on the PP podcast reckons IF Lossie does go for the champion, mullins will still want a runner in the mares. He suggested Jade is the most likely one.

It does seem very obvious but perhaps we all have it wrong.
 
In my humble opinion the only mare who can beat Wodhooh in the Mares Hurdle is Lossiemouth. I hope it doesn't happen but don't reckon anything else in Willies yard will beat her.
